Kyianna is a modern American given name, a creative elaboration blending the fashionable prefix Ky- with -anna. It is most often interpreted as a variant of Kiana/Kianna, the Hawaiian rendering of Diana (“divine, heavenly”), and may also be colored by Persian Kiana (linked to “realm/royal nature”). The -anna ending echoes Anna/Hannah, “grace,” lending a layered, graceful tone to the name.

Spellings and related variants include Kiyanna, Keyanna, Kyanna, Kyana, Kianna, Kiana, and Quiana. Short forms include Kyi, Kia, Kiki, Yana, and Anna. Because it draws on several streams, Kyianna can be read as “divine grace” or “royal grace,” while retaining a contemporary, melodic sound.
