As beautiful as it is meaningful, Aleyna is a girl's name that has a host of different meanings and origins. Derived from the same etymological root as Helen, this name has Greek roots and means "light" or "shining." In Arabic, Aleyna means "on us," which comes from the Arabic word alayna (علينا). Along with this blessed background, Aleyna also appears in other cultures and languages, and is possibly a variant of the Celtic masculine name Alan, meaning "handsome" or "little rock." Fortunately, all of these meanings set baby up for an auspicious life.
