Lyanni Origin and Meaning

The name Lyanni is a girl's name of French, English origin meaning "to climb like a vine; meadow grace".

A modern spin on Liana, and Leanne, possible inspired by the Game of Thrones / A Song of Ice and Fire character Lyanna Stark too. Relating back to the climbing plant, the liana, or to the compound Leanne meaning "meadow grace", Lyanni makes a playful, modern twist.

The name Lyanni shot up the stats in 2024 when it was given to 43 girls, having only ever appeared in the charts on two other occasions, in 2017 and 2011, when it was given to 6 girls. One possible influence could be Portuguese singer Luciana Abreu and footballer Yannick Djaló, who have a daughter called Lyanni, who has had more of a presence on her mother's social media in recent years.
