We chose Elliana because it means (depending on the baby name site) light of the moon, sunray and “my God has answered”. We tried for quite a while to have a child, so the name was fitting. Plus, when we saw her for the first time, we knew that was the name for her.
We also chose it because it can be said easily in French and English (as we are both bilingual) and it’s a unique name. At least, it was when we named her. We have since met a few Elliana’s, but we wouldn’t have chosen any other name for our daughter. ?

We love the meaning of this name and the feminine beauty it carries! Our daughter has prayed for a sister for 9 years and it was an overwhelming moment when we saw that God had answered her, as the meaning of Elliana says!

I knew i wanted her name to start with an e. I just loved how Elliana Grace flowed. With her last name.

Beautiful! We named our little princess Aliana. The E didn’t go well with our last name. Both are so graceful/classy/elegant in my opinion! We get so many compliments!

Marlene mother to Elliana Rose Jun 23 at 1:55 pm

I have tried for over 15 years to get pregnant. My need for a child was so strong I spent my entire life savings and sold my car for a chance to see a specialist. God knew what he was doing! In 2014 my mother got breast cancer and after loosing both breast she decided if it come back to not fight anymore. Then God answer ( the meaning of the name Elliana ) in 2016 @36 I gave birth to my only child Elliana Rose. We chose the double ll cause we thought it looked prettier. Rose was chosen as a middle name as a double meaning. My fathers name is Rosario and after the flower cause she is the rose of my life!! Sadly I’m 2019 I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer but my God knew what he was doing!! Like my mother I wouldn’t have fought the cancer if it wasn’t for this beautiful gift from god!! Elliana isn’t a name for everyone but for a few children it it truly is meant to be!! God bless you and your little Elliana

We fell in love with this name after meeting the sweetest little girl, Elliana. We decided to name our daughter Aliana because we really wanted an “A” name and love the nickname Allie vs Ellie. Beautiful stunning name. Absolutely adore!

We chose Elliana because we loved the meaning. The meaning is Hebrew is God has answered. My husband and I both lost parents this past November and we were so blessed to find out we were pregnant. God truly answered our prayers as we always wanted a sibling for our older daughter. We love that we can call her Elli or El. Elliana is just the sweetest little girl and we are so blessed to welcome her to our family.

We chose Elliana because of the meaning “the Lord has answered”, after a 3 year struggle with infertility. Her middle name is Hope. We chose to spell it with two L’s since we planned to also call her Ellie for short. I had a few other people we knew name their daughters Ellie and so I liked it better as a nickname. I thought it would be weird if we called her Ellie with two L’s but Elliana be spelled with 1. The only thing I dislike about it is it is often spelled wrongly although surprisingly the dr office always gets it right & has also always pronounced it right. I have also had it mistaken for Elaina. Overall we are really happy with her name!

  Elliana is a great name! My sister’s name is Alana, and we wanted to name my daughter something similar to my sister after she passed away in 2019, and Elliana was the perfect name!
