Georgana is Greek in Origin.

Georgana is a rare English feminine name, likely a streamlined spelling of Georgiana or a blend of Georgia with the suffix -ana. All derive from George, from Greek Georgios, rooted in ge "earth" and ergon "work," yielding the meaning "farmer" or "earth-worker." Pronunciations vary - jor-GAN-uh or jor-JAN-uh - depending on region and family tradition.

Use appears sporadically in U.S. records from the late 19th century, with modest mid-20th-century visibility; it has seldom charted nationally, keeping a distinctive, vintage feel linked to the broader Saint George naming tradition. Close variants include Georganna, Georgiana, Georgina, and Georgia; related forms are Georgette and Georgene. Short forms and pet names range from Georgie and Gigi to Gina, Ana, and Annie. Georgana suits parents seeking a familiar-rooted yet uncommon alternative to the popular Georgia/Georgina set.
