History & Origin

Tiannah is a decorated spelling of Tiana, itself a short form of longer names such as Christiana or Tatiana. Tiana took on a life of its own in the later twentieth century and is sometimes linked to the idea of a 'fairy queen.' The doubled n and final h in Tiannah are the era's flourishes on a graceful sound.

Tiannah stayed rare, only a few dozen girls a year around the mid-2000s, even as Tiana was well used. It is an ornate variant of a flowing, of-its-time name.

Did you know? The extra 'n' and silent 'h' give Tiana a fuller, more ornamental look typical of the era.
