You would be half correct in that sense - "álainn" does mean "beautiful" in Irish. However, even though it may have been influenced by "álainn", Alanna isn't an Irish name. Alanna is a feminine form of a Breton name, and its true meaning really doesn't go beyond the meaning of Alan - "little rock" or "handsome".
