Adeena is a relatively rare name in the United States, first recorded in 1961. It reached its peak rank of 10,107 in 2013, with an estimated 1 in 178,585 girls receiving the name that year. Since 2014, its usage has been on a slow decline. The name's popularity has been concentrated in the 2010s. While its top states are not listed, Adeena has been used across diverse communities, possibly reflecting its dual Hebrew and Arabic origins. Its sound is similar to more common names like Adina and Deena, but Adeena remains a distinctive choice.
Adeena is likely a variant of Adina, a name found in the Hebrew Bible meaning 'delicate' or 'slender'. It may also be related to the Arabic name 'Adeena', which refers to 'Friday' or 'celebration'. The name has been used in both Jewish and Muslim communities, though its exact derivation is debated.
