Can anyone tell me where the name TIANA originated from. I would also
appreciate the meaning of the name.

Hi,
I don't know for certain, but Tiana looks like an abbreviated Christiana
to me. Where Christiana comes from, I don't know either - maybe Greek.
Again, Christiana looks like a form of Christine - usually means
Christian or Christ like I think.
It is pretty - Tiana - never heard of it before.

It looks like an abbreviation of Tatiana to me.
(It's a Russian word meaning perfume.) Just kidding. :-)

I know someone named Taina (prononced tIna, long 'i') and her mother was from Tahiti so I imagine that is the origin of that particular spelling and pronounciation. Dawn | |||||
