Meaning & origin

Guiliana is a modern Italian spelling variant of Giuliana, the feminine form of Julian. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1993 and saw its peak popularity in 2010, when it ranked higher than its current position of #13,208 in 2025. The name is currently given to about 1 in every 267,878 newborns, marking a decline since 2011. Though it has no top state concentrations, Guiliana remains a distinctive choice among Italian-inspired names, offering the same youthful meaning as its Latin root while standing apart from more common forms like Juliana.

Guiliana is an Italian spelling variant of Giuliana, the feminine form of Giuliano, which derives from the Roman family name Julianus (from Iulius). Like its root, the name carries the meaning 'youthful' or 'downy-bearded'. It has been used across Italy and among Italian diaspora communities since the late 20th century.
