Dahiana

Dahiana is a girl’s name of Swedish origin. It’s a variant of Dahlia, a floral name deriving from the flower named after Swedish botanist Anders Dahl. Dahl’s surname means “valley” in North Germanic languages. The national flower of Mexico, dahlias were once used as a food crop by the Aztecs, but today they’re more commonly found as garden plants. Boasting many different gorgeous varieties, this beautiful flower makes a wonderful namesake, and is less common than other, more traditional floral names. Dahiana is a variant most commonly found in the Dominican Republic and Uruguay.
