Re: My column on Ariana and Arianna
I've actually been aware of Ariana's historical English-speaking usage since I found a few historical Arianas on Find a Grave. I was surprised at first too. Ariana's modern popularity has definitely overshadowed its historical usage, to the point where you'd be forgiven for thinking it was a recent coinage.
