Zanae meaning

Zana is my sister-in-law's name. She is from Albania, and her full name is Suzana, but everyone calls her Zana.

My name is Zana and I love it! although it has caused so many people grief when'trying to say or remember its pronunciation. They automatically say ❤️Zarna❤️ whereas It's Dana with a Z. I'm 70. My parents were from Irish descent. Father was inspired by a Russian ballerina whose name had the letters z.a.n.a in the middle of it and Mother'said Zan was a Persian word for woman. I had never heard the name before in Australia until the 80s when, out of curiosity, I looked it up on the internet. August 2017

This name means defender, it is wonderfull! all pretty girls have these name!

EVERYONE says my name wrong. its Zahna not Zayna. i thought i was the only one!! my dad made a program that would give out names that had consonant vowel consonant vowel patter, so it would sound japanese (im half japanese). everyone asks what language it is, so i just tell them its a diminutive of the hebrew name'shoshana (english: Suzanna)

My name is Zana and I Im a black African American girl who lives in the'state of Mobile Alabama.

My daughter is named Zayna (not Zana) but Zayna is not listed on this site. Zayna is an Arabic name meaning 'beautiful' or 'lovely one', and is the feminine version of Zane/Zayn. People sometimes spell her name Zana.

My name is Zana,and people say Zay-nah or Zahna. i dont mind either way!

My name is Zana, you say it like Zane-uh, like someone else said. I got my name because my dad's name is Zane. And I would just like to say that if your name is spelled like Zaina, then'that means "beautiful", but if it is spelled like mine Zana, then it means "lily or rose". I have always loved my name and yes pronouncing it and spelling it to people who usually get it wrong can get old. But I love it dearly and wouldn't change it for the world. But I too thought it was more unique than It's turned out to be.

This is so crazy I'm 6 months pregnant and I'm goin to name my daughter "Ka'Liyah" i didn't think I'made it up but I didn't think it was sooo popular, I wanted to stick with my K's cuz my oldest daughter is "Kaiyona" she's 4 and me "Katrina"

Most times, over the phone, people think that I am saying Anna. Most times I have to say just replace the "D" in Dana with a "Z" for Zana. When people get it, the comment is most often, "that's really pretty". I also like the fact that my name is unique because I am a unique individual.

My name Zana orignates from the Russian name "Zanya" but the Z is pronounced like a french J so It's pronounced Ja-nah

I find a lot o these comments inter'sting.. My name is Zana and I'm 24. Im Macedonian/Albanian and I was told that It's an albanian name. My father named me Zana after an bosnian/albanian singer, Zana Nimani. Eitherhow, I am happy with the name, however'sometimes people tend to pronounce it in different ways. I got used to it, so I'm okay with that ;) I haven't met anyone with the exact same name, but i've met girls with the name, Suzana, Elzana, Ezana.. All of whom, have shortened it to "Zana", because that's what they each individually prefer to be called. So I guess I'm lucky to have suc a beautiful name, having a variety of meanings in different languages/religions. ;-)

I LIKE MY NAME ALTHOUGH PEOPLE PRONOUNCE IT INCORRECT

I chose Zana for my first name, when I'moved to the US, because I found my previous name difficult for Americans to pronounce. Zana which is a popular name for boys in Kurdistan, means "sombody with plenty of knowledge". Also, It's last name for a famous Kurdish peace activist -Leila Zana- who won European parlI'ment peace prize while she was in Turkish jails.My wife's name is Leila, so It's easy for our friends to memorize our names,Leila Zana!:)

I named my daughter Zana ( Zay-Na) after my Great Grandmother. I love the name!

We named our daughter Zina in 2019 after my great great grandmother who traveled across the United States in a covered wagon back in the 1800s and gave birth to my great grandfather on the plains. She was a great leader, midwife, and helped settle Utah. Her great uncle was one of the original signers of the US Constitution as well.
