History & Origin

Guilianna is a modern respelling of Giuliana, itself the Italian form of Latin Juliana — feminine of Julianus, from the great Roman gens Julia. Saints and duchesses have worn Juliana across Europe for two thousand years. The Guilianna spelling is an American variant that keeps the Italian music (said 'joo-lee-AH-nah').

It appears only rarely in U.S. records in this spelling. Rare here, classic in its standard form.

Did you know? Behind Guilianna stands Julius: the Roman family name that gave us July, Julian, Juliana and Giuliana. It is traditionally read as 'youthful' (said 'joo-lee-AH-nah').
