Silky, gracious, or divine
Quianna is a modern American invention, likely a creative elaboration of the name Quiana. It rose to prominence in the 1970s following the introduction of a silky nylon fabric of the same name by DuPont. It is often associated with the qualities of the fabric—softness and luxury—while also drawing phonetic influence from names like Anna.
