History & Origin

Arrianna respells Arianna, the Italian and Spanish form of Greek Ariadne, 'most holy'. In myth Ariadne, daughter of Minos, guided Theseus safely from the Cretan labyrinth. The double r is a recent American styling (said 'air-ee-AN-uh').

It appears only rarely in U.S. records, far behind Arianna. Rare, flowing, and myth-rooted.

Did you know? Ariadne gave Theseus the thread that led him out of the labyrinth — her name means 'most holy'. Arrianna is the doubled-r spelling of its Italian form, a modern touch, which we note (said 'air-ee-AN-uh').
