FADING GIRL · HAWAIIAN-STYLE (MODERN ENGLISH COINAGE)
🇺🇸

Keanna

/kee · AN · uh/


“Possibly divine”

Possibly a variant of Kiana, the Hawaiian form of Diana; Diana comes from a root meaning 'divine' or 'heavenly', and was the Roman goddess of the moon and the hunt. Or perhaps a feminine form of Keanu, sometimes explained as a modern coinage from Hawaiian words meaning 'the cool one', as in a cool breeze over the mountain.
