History & Origin

Aryannah is a heavily elaborated form of Ariana (from Greek Ariadne, 'most holy'). As Ariana rose for American girls, its spellings proliferated, and the 'Ary-' opening with a doubled 'n' and trailing 'h' is one of the showier variants of the 2000s and 2010s.

It was always rare, cresting around 2013 with only a couple dozen girls a year. A child named Aryannah then is still young, a Gen-Z name that reads as an of-the-moment ornamental spelling of a classic later carried to new heights by the singer Ariana Grande.

Did you know? Whatever the spelling, the name is Ariana - the Italian descendant of Greek Ariadne, the Cretan princess of the labyrinth myth - so the 'very holy' meaning stays intact.
