Eliana Assyrian/Akkadian, אֶלִיעַנָה (Hebrew), Ηλιάνα (Greek), إليانا (Arabic), is a female given name found with that spelling in Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. == Origin & Meaning == Many sources derive it from Akkadian/Assyrian, literally translated as "My God has answered me."〔(), ELIANA is from the Aramaic and Hebrew words, meaning MY GOD HAS ANSWERED (Kolatch, Alfred J. 1994. The New Name Dictionary - Modern English and Hebrew Names. Middle Village: Jonathan David. 110)〕 It is composed of three Hebrew elements: ''EL'', meaning GOD; ''ANA'', meaning ANSWERED; and the Yud, located after ''EL'', indicating first person possession.〔(), ELIANA is composed of three Hebrew elements. EL, meaning GOD (Alcalay, R. The Complete Hebrew English Dictionary. Jerusalem: Massada. 90); ANA, meaning ANSWERED (Alcalay, R. The Complete Hebrew English Dictionary. Jerusalem: Massada. 1925); and the Yud, located after EL, indicating first person possession.〕 Biblical sources: "And he erected there an altar, and called it El- () elohe-Israel (the God of the Patriarch Israel )" (Genesis 33:20). "And Efron answered () Abraham, saying unto him," (Genesis 23:14).〔(). 〕 It can also be derived from the Late Latin Aeliāna, the feminine form of the Latin family name Aeliānus (of the sun), which is derived from the Greek hēlios (sun).〔(), Norman, Teresa. A World of Baby Names. New York: Berkley Publishing Group, 2003. 460.〕 Moreover, it is related to the Greek name Helene, and would thus be one of the many forms derived from that Greek name, such as Elaine from Old French. In Arabic, it is translated as "the Bright" . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eliana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
