History & Origin

Aitanna doubles the n of Aitana, the name of the highest mountain in Spain's Alicante province. As a given name it began with Aitana Alberti, daughter of poet Rafael Alberti, who chose it in exile for the final Spanish summit visible from his departing ship; the romantic story carried the name into wide Spanish use.

Pop star Aitana Ocaña's 2017 breakout on Operación Triunfo turbo-charged the name in Spain, and Spanish-speaking families in the U.S. picked it up soon after. The Aitanna spelling is a rare American flourish on the rising original.

Did you know? Exiled Spanish poet Rafael Alberti named his daughter Aitana in 1941 after the last peak of home he could see from the ship carrying him to exile — the origin story of the entire name.
