Puerto Rican Girl names ending in -ana -anna

Many will associate Rihanna with the Barbados-born singer, known mononymously by her middle name. During her early years of fame, when "Umbrella" was on the radio and "Take a Bow" was playing through the iPod Shuffle, the name shot up the charts in the US, UK, France, and Puerto Rico. Though the name did fall out of the charts as rapidly as it entered and while some parents might feel it is way too tied to the mid-2000s, Rihanna was given to 165 babies in 2023.

Rihanna isn't simply a music-inspired choice, however; it's an Arabic name, deriving from Rayhana, meaning "basil". Like Aaliyah and Leila, it is used cross-culturally, with several spelling variations cropping up, including Rihana, Rianna, Reanna, and Rhianna - though they may also be boosted up by their similarity to Welsh Rhiannon.

With its nature-inspired meaning and its sweet but strong sound, Rihanna could easily work on a baby born today.

It's a variation of Yuliana, which itself is derived from the Roman name Juliana (feminine form of Julius).

The name carries a melodic quality with its flowing syllables and has gained some popularity in Eastern European countries and among Russian-speaking communities worldwide. Yulianna projects elegance and femininity while offering familiar nickname options like Yuli, Anna, or Lia.
