Lyanne

Meaning of Lyanne

Lyanne is a feminine given name that functions as a modern variant of Leanne, itself rooted in the fusion of the Old English leah (meadow) and the Hebrew Hannah (grace). Its recorded usage in California newborn statistics peaked at 51 occurrences in 1991 (rank 346), dipped to 8 births in 1992 (rank 382), and climbed back to 15 in 1993 (rank 370), reflecting modest adoption trends. Pronounced lee-AN (/liˈan/), Lyanne conforms to standard Anglo-American phonetics, which aids its clear enunciation. It carries associations of understated refinement and structural balance, making it appealing to parents who value both distinctiveness and technical clarity. Though never achieving widespread popularity, Lyanne established a discreet niche among compound names of the early 1990s. With these modest figures, parents can rest assured that playground roll calls are unlikely to become a tongue-twister phenomenon.
