Miriana

Miriana is a lilting girl name, used as a variation of classic Miriam in Italy. Familiar in its native country, it was once a Top 100 choice back in the 90s, though it fell out of the Top 200 in 2010.

An intriguing possibility with sounds that work in multiple languages, Miriana is sometimes seen as a variation of Spanish Mirian (from Miriam), the Slavic Mira or Mirana, and the Latin Miranda too. As such it may additionally mean "admirable" from its Latin roots or "peace, world" from its Slavic ones.

Pronounced mir-ee-AH-nuh.

As of October 2026, Miriana ranked #14658 in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #10029 in 2013.
