Savanna
s(a)-vanna,
sav(an)-na
US Popularity:1524
Origin:Native American
Meaning:From the open plain; Treeless plain
While baby’s name may be indicative of a bare landscape, there’s nothing sparse about this little one’s personality. Savanna is the less common version of the feminine appellation Savannah, giving your little one a unique spin on their name. The title stems from the Native American word zabana, which means “from the open plain,” and has soared in popularity in the US over the last few decades. The blank canvas background of their name can give this wild one the freedom to be whoever they pleases, not defined by a predestined meaning.
