History & Origin

Alenna is a double-n spelling of Alena/Alana — variously a Slavic and Czech form of Helen/Magdalena, 'light' (Greek), and the Irish Alana, 'fair; a little rock; harmony' (routes layered, which we note). A soft, lyrical, modern name; the -nn- styling personalizes it (said 'ə-LEN-ah'; nickname Lena).

It registers thinly in records. Rare, light-or-fair at the root, and lyrical.
