Noelania is in Origin.

Noelania is a modern Hawaiian feminine name built from noe (“mist, fine rain”) and lani (“heaven, sky; royal, exalted”), yielding the poetic sense “heavenly mist” or “mist of heaven.” It is closely related to Noelani, with Noelania functioning as an elaborated variant formed with a final -a; both share identical meaning. The name is not etymologically connected to English/French Noël (“Christmas”). Common short forms include Noe and Lani; variant spellings include Noelani (more prevalent), Noe-lani (older hyphenation), and occasional anglicizations like Noelanie.

Usage is most concentrated in Hawai‘i, where imagery of gentle mist and the sacred heavens is longstanding in mele (poetry) and place names. Noelania gained wider visibility in the mainland United States during the mid-to-late 20th century alongside the popularity of other Hawaiian names such as Leilani. While never a national chart mainstay, it remains a distinctive, culturally rooted choice.
