Etymology & Historical Origin of the Baby Name Avianna

Aviana and Avianna are newly coined female given names popularized by American actress Amy Adams who recently named her first child, a baby daughter, Aviana Olea Le Gallo in May 2010. According to Adams, she and her husband named little Aviana after Aviano, Italy – the small northeastern Italian town where Amy was born while her serviceman father had been stationed overseas. Avian means “pertaining to birds” from the Latin “avis” meaning “bird”, so we wouldn’t be surprised if Aviano, Italy took its name from the same Latin root. (Interestingly Aviano is considered the birthplace of Italian aviation and you don’t get more “birdlike” than that!). Birds are creatures that bear a lot of positive symbolism: they represent freedom and quiet gracefulness in flight; they represent intellect and imagination as the soar through the air; and they bring spiritual messages and peaceful sounds through their lovely songs.

OF THE GIRL NAME AVIANNA

Avianna followed Aviana (with one “n”) on to the charts. In fact, Avianna is so new to the Top 1000 list of baby girl names; she only just appeared in 2011. These names are both too new in American to assess their potential staying power, but they have seen some usage (mostly thanks to Amy Adams). If you’re finding the trendy Ariana/Arianna a bit tiresome these days, Aviana/Avianna might be another choice to consider. It’s still very new, underused and original.
