Did you know?
- While Ariana is used in Spanish, the more traditional Spanish equivalent is Ariadna, which comes from the Greek myth of the thread used to escape the Labyrinth.
- Unlike some traditional Spanish names that have a designated 'Saint's Day' in the calendar, Ariana is often treated as a modern or international name.
- If one were to use Ariana as a descriptor for something 'Aryan' (related to a linguistic or racial group), the Spanish word would be 'ario' or 'aria', changing the gender and suffix.
