Auriana is a feminine given name of Latin origin, drawn from aurum (“gold”), which conveys a sense of luminosity and elegance. Historically linked to the medieval Romance name Oriana and occasionally compared with Aurora in English contexts, it has enjoyed modest, steady use across Italy and Spain. In the United States, Auriana remains rare—ranked 942nd by the Social Security Administration in 2024 with just eight recorded births and consistently positioned in the lower 900s over the past decade. Pronounced awr-ee-AH-nuh (/ɔːriˈænə/), the name bridges classical heritage and contemporary style, offering parents a subtly radiant yet distinct choice.
