Rising sun or a variation of Kiana
Kyani is a modern name with multiple possible roots. It is often used as a variation of the Hawaiian name Kiana, meaning 'divine' or 'moon goddess', or linked to the Australian Aboriginal word for 'rising sun'. In some contexts, it is treated as a creative rhythmic blend of sounds popular in contemporary American naming.
