      Meaning of the first name Livana

      Origin

      Hebrew

      Meaning

      White

      Variations

      Levana, Ivana, Liana
      The name Livana derives from the Hebrew language, with its literal meaning being White. Of ancient origins, this name has garnered a significant historical presence as well as continued usage in modern times. Livana can be traced back to biblical times, where it is mentioned in various passages of the Hebrew Bible, adding to its rich historical context.

      In ancient Hebrew culture, the name Livana held symbolic significance beyond its literal meaning. White, in Hebrew culture, represented purity, righteousness, and clarity. As such, Livana was often associated with these qualities and was bestowed upon children in hopes of bestowing them with such virtues.

      Today, Livana remains in usage, albeit on a less ubiquitous scale. It is often chosen as a first name for girls, reflecting their parents' desire to pass on the notions of purity and righteousness to their offspring. Despite its ancient roots, Livana continues to captivate parents seeking a name that is not only rooted in tradition but also carries a deep and symbolic meaning.
