History & Origin

Dallana is a modern coined name that joins a Da- or Dallas- opening to the -lana of Alana. Alana is the feminine of Alan, a Celtic name read as 'handsome', 'harmony', or 'rock'. Dallana appears in American records mainly in recent decades, often among Hispanic-American families, part of a broad fashion for flowing -ana names. It is a real, deliberate coinage whose -lana element gives it a genuine root.

Dallana has stayed uncommon, with only a few dozen girls a year receiving it around a high point near 2003. A girl named Dallana then would be in her early twenties today. Its meaning is best traced through Alana; it reads as a smooth, contemporary name of its era rather than a variant error, and it is one of the more recent names in this group.

Did you know? Through its -lana ending, Dallana links to Alana, the feminine of Alan, giving this modern coinage a meaning of 'handsome' or 'harmony'.
