History & Origin

Zorianna is a modern elaboration on Zoria/Zorya, the Slavic dawn word and the name of the dawn sisters of folklore. The -anna ending lengthens it into four soft beats. The elaboration is recent, and the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'zor-ee-AN-uh').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, romantic, and Slavic-flavored.

Did you know? The Slavic word zorya means 'dawn,' and in old folklore the Zorya were guardian sisters of the morning and evening sky — a lovely backdrop for Zorianna, though the name itself is a modern elaboration, which we note (said 'zor-ee-AN-uh').
