Keana

Meaning of Keana

Keana is a lyrical name that feels like a warm island breeze and a promise of adventure wrapped into one. In English it’s sung as kee-AH-nuh, while in Hawaiian it becomes keh-AH-nah, each syllable dancing lightly on the tongue. With roots in the Pacific, Keana often carries the meaning of a precious gift or the glow of dawn—and in an Indian storyteller’s heart, it shimmers like the first diya flame at Diwali, full of hope and light. Playful yet graceful, this name sparks images of palm leaves rustling at sunset and little feet chasing monsoon raindrops. Parents drawn to its gentle strength and poetic charm will find Keana an inspiring choice for their bright new beginning.
