Savana is Spanish in Origin.
Savana is a streamlined form of Savannah/Savanna, ultimately taken from the geographic term for a tropical grassland. The word traces to Spanish sabana, widely believed to come from Taíno zabana, with cognates in French savane and Portuguese savana. In meaning, the name evokes open plain or vast, treeless grassland, suggesting spaciousness, warmth, and natural beauty.
As a given name it gained traction in the late 20th century alongside the popularity of Savannah in English-speaking countries, boosted by the visibility of the historic city of Savannah, Georgia, and broader nature-name trends. Savana, without the final h and double n, appears in Brazil and Portugal (matching the Portuguese noun) and in parts of Eastern Europe as a sleek, modern spelling. Variants and related spellings include Savannah, Savanna, Savanah, and Savane; diminutives and nicknames include Vana, Savi/Savvy, and Ana.
