Chayanne Origin and Meaning

The name Chayanne is a girl's name.

Chayanne is a feminine name with Spanish and Caribbean influences. While it gained recognition partly through Puerto Rican singer Chayanne (Elmer Figueroa Arce), the feminine version has developed its own identity. The name might be derived from the French 'chéenne,' meaning 'female dog' or possibly a creative modern invention. Chayanne conveys a musical, rhythmic quality that reflects its Latin American associations. Though relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, it has maintained steady usage in Hispanic communities since the 1990s, appreciated for its distinctive sound and cultural connections.
