Martannah is English in Origin.
Martannah appears to be a modern blended feminine name, fusing the Mart- element of Martha/Marta or Martina with -annah from Hannah/Anna. The roots span Aramaic Marta "lady," Hebrew Hannah "grace, favor," and Latin Martinus "of Mars, warlike." Together they suggest resonant meanings such as "graceful lady," "favored lady," or "graceful warrior." Common pronunciations are mar-TAN-uh or mar-TAN-nah, with a silent final h.
Usage is rare and recent, surfacing in English-speaking communities in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, where creative -annah formations gained appeal. It does not typically appear in national top-1000 lists, but turns up in church rolls, online birth announcements, and family trees. Variant spellings include Martanna, Martanah, Martana, and Martanneh; short forms range from Marta, Mara, and Marty to Tanna, Tani, and Annie. Related names include Martha, Marta, Martina, Martin, Hannah, Anna, and Susannah.
