Ellianna

Girl name · 4 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Ellianna: 4 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 4 births in 2019.

Ellianna is a modern elaboration of the beloved name Eliana, which itself draws from the Hebrew root *El*, meaning "God." The name Eliana carries the beautiful meanings "my God has answered" or "God has favoured me," reflecting deep gratitude. This melodic creation gained visibility through Ellianna Bragen, a young American actress known for her role in the television series *The Fosters*. Unlike many vowel-rich names, Ellianna has no direct place connections, though its root shares a lineage with the Hebrew place name Elath. A notable variant is the more common spelling Eliana, while Ellianna adds an extra 'l' and 'n' for a distinct, lyrical touch that feels both contemporary and timeless.
