Lallana is in Origin.
Lallana is a rare given name most recognisable as a Spanish toponymic surname. It derives from La Llana - literally “the level plain” - a place‑name found in parts of northern Spain, so the underlying sense is “from the plain” or “level ground.” As a first name, Lallana fits the modern fashion for surname‑as‑given‑name choices and for names with liquid, lilting sounds.
Variants and related forms include Llana and La Llana in Spanish, and the simplified Lalana; diminutives or short forms can be Lala, Lana, or Ana. Do not confuse it with Alana or Liliana, though these sometimes influence spelling. Outside Iberia, some parents also note the Sanskrit word lalanā (“woman, beloved; to cherish”), a separate etymology that contributes an appealing meaning. Usage as a personal name is contemporary and uncommon, occasionally boosted in English‑speaking countries by visibility of the surname through figures like footballer Adam Lallana.
