About Aviana

Aviana is a name that's like the megapopular Ava and Ariana, but not quite as popular as either. It entered into the mainstream back in 2010 however, after actress Amy Adams chose it for her daughter, fulfilling her desire to choose a "normal" name after all, even if it didn't seem like that a decade ago.

Adams got the name from her place of birth, Aviano, Italy, though we suspect many parents go with Aviana for its bird related meaning and popular sounds. The first syllable of the name can be pronounced ah, ay, or av (like in have).

In 2024, it was a fast rising choice, given to over 400 girls, despite having previously been on the decline.

Pronounced ay-vee-AH-nuh.

As of October 2026, Aviana ranked #887 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #393 in 2016.
