History & Origin

Alianis is a modern coinage used mostly among Spanish-speaking families in Puerto Rico, the wider Caribbean and the U.S. It reads as a reshaping of Aliana or Alianna with an -is ending, part of a lively tradition of newly minted Latin American girls' names. We have found no documented etymology for it and do not invent one - routes uncertain, which we note (said 'ah-lee-AH-nis').

It appears only very rarely for girls in the U.S. Rare, invented, and Latin American in style.
