Meaning & origin
Leahna is a modern feminine name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1998. It reached its peak popularity in 2011, though it has never been common. In 2025, the name ranked 13,208th, with about 1 in every 267,878 newborn girls receiving it. Its trajectory has been falling since 2010, reflecting a broader trend of declining use for many creatively spelled names. While no top states recorded significant usage, Leahna remains a distinctive choice for parents seeking a name that blends familiar sounds from Leah and Anna.
Leahna is a modern coinage, first recorded in the United States in 1998. It likely arose as a combination of the names Leah (from Hebrew, meaning 'weary') and Anna (from Hebrew, meaning 'grace'), though it may also be a variant spelling of Liana, a short form of names like Juliana or Liliana. The name has seen modest use in the early 21st century, particularly in the 2010s.
