Yavanna is a feminine name with mythological origins, drawn from J.R.R. Tolkien's literary works where Yavanna appears as the goddess of fruits, growth, and harvest in Middle-earth's mythology.

Yavanna carries strong nature associations and an ethereal, mystical quality appealing to parents with interests in fantasy literature or nature-themed names. The name's exotic sound pattern with alternating consonants and vowels creates a melodic flow. Though uncommon, Yavanna represents a growing trend of names inspired by fantasy literature, offering both unique character and meaningful literary connections for the bearer.
