Spelling variation Elianna is uniquely popular to the US however, where it joins Eliana and Elliana in the Top 300. While it may be the least popular option of the three, it is still given to more than 1000 girls each year.

The name Eliana may have roots in the Latin family name Aelius, related to the Greek helios, which means "sun". In Hebew, El means God and ana means answered, which may make Elianna or Eliana a good name for a prayed-for child.

Elianna may also make a good option if you were hoping to honor someone named Anne or Anna, and it could be considered more of a compound name, blending Anna with the likes of Ella, Eli, or Elizabeth, in which case, you could play around a bit with the meaning, to get "graceful fairy maiden", "uplifting grace", or "God is gracious".
