Jalanie is a modern American given name, likely a creative blend that draws on the sound patterns of Jelani (a Swahili name meaning “mighty, powerful”) and Leilani (Hawaiian for “heavenly flowers,” with Lani meaning “sky, heaven”). As a coinage rather than a name with a single linguistic root, it does not carry a fixed etymological meaning; many parents interpret it as suggesting a balance of strength and grace or a “heavenly” strength. Its lilting -lani/-lani-e cadence also echoes familiar names such as Melanie and Alani.

Usage of Jalanie appears in late-20th- and early-21st-century U.S. records, remaining rare and largely contemporary, with flexible gender use but most common for girls. Variant spellings include Jalani, Jelainee, Jalainey, and Jalayni; short forms include Lani and Jae. Related names with clear etymologies are Jelani (Swahili, “mighty”) and Leilani (Hawaiian, “heavenly flowers”).
