Meaning & origin
Dyanna is a modern respelling of the classic Diana, introduced in the 20th century. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1937, but saw its peak usage in 2005. Since 2004, its popularity has been falling. The name remained rare, with a rank of 14,942 in 2025 and an incidence of 1 in 321,453 births. Dyanna's spelling distinguishes it from the more common Dianna and Diana, appealing to parents seeking a unique yet recognizable variant.
Dyanna is a modern respelling of Diana, which derives from Latin dīvus 'divine'. Diana was the Roman goddess of the hunt and moon. The spelling Dyanna likely arose in the 20th century as a creative variation, following the trend of replacing 'i' with 'y' for a distinctive look.
