Oriana Forename Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
A female name. Oriande, Oriante are frequent in Old French romances, e.g. as the name of the mistress of Amadis de Gaul. It is presumably a derivative of Latin oriri 'to rise’. Madrigal writers applied the name Oriana to Queen Elizabeth, and Ben Jonson used it for Anne of Denmark ‘quasi oriens Anna’. Tennyson’s ‘Ballad of Oriana’ was probably the cause of the occasional use of the name in recent times; he took it from a friend, Oriana Reinagle, of R. R. Reinagle (1775-1862), and Oriana f ;.d. of Sir Mitford Crowe.
