Xana

If you are looking to give baby a name that will be their guiding light through all life’s victories and challenges, consider the feminine name Xana. You’ll find echoes of this moniker in some very interesting places, including Asturian mythology! One of several Spanish mythological traditions, Asturian mythology comes from Asturias, a region in northwest Spain. In Asturias, xanas are mythical fairies known for their extraordinary beauty and hypnotic voices. Once little Xana hears about their name’s mythological connection, they’ll know that no one will ever be able to clip their wings! Determining the exact origin of the name Xana is not an easy task, though it is believed to have links to the Latin and Greek monikers Diana and Alexandra. Meaning “divine” and “defender of men,” respectively, these two name definitions could inspire baby Xana to share their inner power with the world.
