History & Origin
Cipriana is the feminine of Cipriano and Cyprian, from the Latin Cyprianus, 'from Cyprus.' Tied to early Christian saints and to a storied Mediterranean island, it reads as an elegant heritage name, borne mainly by Hispanic and Italian families and rare in the United States.
Cipriana appeared in modest numbers, peaking around 1926 with still only about fifteen girls a year. A woman named Cipriana at that peak would belong to a great-grandparents' generation today, and the name keeps its graceful, old-world character.
