Tanna

Meaning of Tanna

Tanna (TAN-uh) lights up a room like a spark at sunset. Rooted in the Gaelic word tan for “fire” and carrying a dash of sabor latino with a playful nod to “tanto” (so much), this name blends warmth and abundance. Worn by the Tannaim—wise storytellers of ancient lore—Tanna feels both timeless and vivacious. In America, she’s danced in and out of the top 1,000 since the 1940s; in 2023 just five little Tannas arrived, placing her at rank 953—a sweet spot that’s both rare and warmly familiar. With every bright syllable, Tanna invites joy, sparks curiosity, and promises an adventure full of lively spirit.
