History & Origin

Kiauna is an ornate respelling of Kiana, a late-twentieth-century name variously tied to a Hawaiian form of Diana or to the 1970s Quiana fabric. The extra letters reflect the modern taste for personalized spellings.

It appeared only in small numbers, no more than a few dozen girls a year around the early two-thousands, and reads as a creative twist rather than a distinct name. It sits among many Ki- and -ana names of its moment.

Did you know? Kiauna is really Kiana in fancier dress - a name often linked to a Hawaiian form of Diana, which itself reaches back to a Roman goddess.
