Milanni is in Origin.

Milanni is a contemporary given name, most likely a stylized elaboration of Milani and Milana. Milani functions as both an Italian surname meaning “of Milan” and as a modern given name often associated with the Slavic root mil-, “dear, gracious,” seen in Milana and Milena. Milanni’s doubled n adds rhythmic emphasis and distinguishes it from the sleeker Milani. The second element echoes Hawaiian lani (“sky, heaven”), a phonetic overlap that informs some parents’ interpretations, though the name’s formation is not Hawaiian.

In use largely since the early 21st century in the United States, Milanni fits with fashionable -ani/-anni endings and the rise of Mila. Variants include Milani, Milannie, Milany, Milanie, Milana, Milena, and the unisex Milan. Short forms range from Mila and Lani to Lanni. Meanings commonly attached are “gracious, dear,” “from Milan,” and, by association, “heavenly.”
