Etymology & Historical Origin of the Baby Name Aiyanna

Aiyanna is a slightly altered form of Aiyana (with one “n”). Both forms of this name are newly coined and used primarily in North America. Aiyana is widely believed to come from a Native American language (some allege Cherokee) meaning “eternal flower”. However, we are unable to verify these claims. Most likely, the name is an altered spelling of Ayana or Ayanna used among Jamaicans and African-Americans perhaps from one of the African languages meaning “flower, blossom”. In any case, the origin of Aiyanna remains obscure and uncertain at best.
