Dianara
Meaning of Dianara
Dianara is a feminine name of Latin origin, derived from the Roman goddess Diana with the suffix –ara to create a modern variation steeped in classical myth. Pronounced dee-ah-NAH-rah in Spanish (/diˈaːnaɾa/) and rendered dee-uh-NAIR-uh in English (/diˈɑnərə/), it features a three-syllable cadence with stress on the second syllable. According to U.S. Social Security Administration records, Dianara first appeared in the mid-1970s and has consistently remained outside the top 700 girls’ names, peaking at 13 registrations (rank 933) in 2005 and recording seven births (rank 982) in 2008. Its rare but steady presence in U.S. data reflects a specialized demand among parents seeking a name that references Latin heritage without mainstream popularity. Associations with independence and lunar symbolism, drawn from its mythological namesake, give Dianara cultural depth while ensuring a distinctive sound.
