feminine · Portuguese (Brazilian) origin
Adriene is a Brazilian Portuguese feminine form of Adrian, which derives from the Latin name Hadrianus, meaning "from Hadria," a town in northern Italy that also gave its name to the Adriatic Sea. The name gained wide use through the Roman emperor Publius Aelius Hadrianus, known in English as Hadrian, and through several early Christian saints. Related forms include Adriana, Adrienne, and Adriana, all sharing the same Latin geographical root.
