Aithanna is a recent American coinage without a documented line of descent. Its sound leans two ways: toward Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and craft, and toward Aitana, a Spanish name taken from the Sierra de Aitana in Alicante. The spelling is the family's own, and the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'ay-THAH-nuh').
It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, soft-edged, and modern.
