Yasna

Meaning of Yasna

Yasna is a feminine name of ancient Persian origin, rooted in the Avestan term for “worship” or “offering” and most famously the title of the principal Zoroastrian liturgical collection, lending the name an air of quiet dignity. It conveys an understated strength and cultural depth that may appeal to parents seeking a distinctive yet meaningful choice. In the United States, Yasna has maintained a modest but steady presence in the Social Security Administration’s annual birth rankings—recording 11 occurrences and a rank of 939 in 2024—never threatening the top tiers but refusing to vanish from view. Pronounced yas-NAH (/jas-ˈnɑh/), the name’s clear, concise form completes its straightforward elegance.
