My brother and partner have just named their baby girl Adanna - does anyone have any idea about meaning or origin of the name?

Adanna Is an African name from the Ibo of Nigeria and it means "Daddy's daughter" or "Father's Daughter"

I knew an Edana, which was pronounced with a soft A similar to Adanna.

Maybe a feminine form of Aidan or Adán (Adan), perhaps by way of combining either with Anna?

Or a varation of Adena?
