What is the meaning of the name Ilania ?

The baby name Ilania is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced ih-LAH-nee-ə (also ee-LAH-nee-ə).

Ilania is Hebrew in Origin.

Ilania is a modern feminine name with Hebrew roots, built on Ilan, the Mishnaic and modern Hebrew word for “tree,” and closely aligned with Ilana. Its sense evokes rootedness, growth, and renewal - qualities linked to Tu BiShvat, the Jewish “New Year of the Trees.” While not classical, the -ia ending gives it a lyrical, international feel.

Usage appears chiefly in contemporary Israeli and diaspora communities from the mid‑20th century onward, alongside other nature‑derived Hebrew revivals. Ilania can be seen as either an elaboration of Ilana or a crossover spelling influenced by Iliana/Eliana. Variants and near‑cognates include Ilana and Ilanit (Hebrew), Iliana/Iljana and Ilyana (international spellings), and Eliana (Hebrew/Latinate, “my God has answered”), though these last have distinct etymologies. Related masculine form: Ilan. Overall meaning centers on “tree; flourishing, steadfast,” with imagery of strength and new growth.
