Diandra

Meaning of Diandra

Diandra (pronounced dee-AN-druh) sparkles with a moonlit heritage, weaving the regal aura of Diana—the Roman goddess of the moon and hunting—into the steady modern charm of Sandra, “defender of mankind.” Emerging in the late 1970s, it quietly claimed its spot on California’s baby name lists, peaking at rank 311 in 1979 and hovering in the mid-300s through the 1980s and ’90s—a sign that parents loved its balance of familiarity and fresh flair. With a lyrical rhythm that feels both warm and strong, and a dash of lighthearted ease—not so offbeat that teachers will stumble over it, yet not so common it disappears in a crowd—Diandra offers little girls a name that promises confidence, grace, and a touch of celestial magic.
