The name Alwenna is a girl's name of Welsh, Breton origin meaning "white brow, nourishing; light, bright; elf joy".

A variation of Alwen and Alwena that helps to avoid it being said as al-WEE-na, Alwenna is an earthy and warm feeling choice. 
 
The exact etymology of the name is obscure, but theories include that it may mean: "white brow" (from the Welsh ael and gwen; "white footstep" as an alternative to Olwen; "nourishing" from a Welsh river name, ultimately from the pro-Celtic *al(aun)o-; "white, bright" as Breton form of Albina; and "elf joy" as a Breton variation of Old English Ælfwynn.
