Eliana, אֱלִיעָנָה (Hebrew), Ηλιάνα (Greek), إليانا (Arabic), is a female given name found with that spelling in Hebrew, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish.
Origin & meaning
Many sources derive it from Hebrew, literally translated as "My God has answered." It is composed of three Hebrew elements: EL, meaning GOD; ANA, meaning HE HAS ANSWERED; and the Yud, located after EL, indicating first person possession. Biblical sources: "And he erected there an altar, and called it El- [God] elohe-Israel [El, the God of the Patriarch Israel]" (Genesis 33:20). "And Efron answered [anah] Abraham, saying unto him," (Genesis 23:14).
It can also be derived from the Late Latin Aeliāna, the feminine form of the Latin family name Aeliānus (of the sun), which is derived from the Greek hēlios (sun).
Moreover, it is related to the Greek name Helene, and would thus be one of the many forms derived from that Greek name, such as Elaine from Old French.
Some variants include Iliana, Ileana, and Eleana.
