Usages: Spanish (Latin American), Haitian Creole
Meaning: Probably an Hispanic variant of Diana, reflecting the English pronunciation, though it coincides with a botanical name belonging to more than one South American orchid, which derives from the surname of English botanist John Day (1824-88). Its use can be partly attributed to the popularity of Diana Spencer (1961-1997), the Princess of Wales. A known bearer is Venezuelan beauty queen Dayana Mendoza (1986-).
