    Oriana

    Pronounced or-ee-AH-nah

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Oriana does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Dawn; Golden; Rising", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Oriana.

    "Dawn; Golden; Rising"
    Origin
    Latin/Italian

    Oriana is the golden dawn — and the Sun of righteousness rises with healing. 'But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings.' Oriana rises healed and whole.

    Spiritual meaning

    Oriana rises with the Sun of righteousness — healing in His wings, growing forth, the LORD's name praised from rising to setting, golden dawn of redemption.

    Questions about biblical name meanings

    How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

    Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

    Does every name have a biblical meaning?

    No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

    Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

    The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.

    How can I tell whether a name is actually in the Bible?

    Each result distinguishes a name that appears in the KJV from a later Christian or thematic name. Related verses explain a theme; they are not presented as proof that a modern name occurs in Scripture.
