Hana

Hana draws from several distinct linguistic traditions that converge on this single form. In Arabic it means happiness or bliss, while in Hebrew it is a variant of Hannah, derived from the root meaning grace or favor, and is widely used as the standard form across Czech, Slovak, Croatian, Slovene, Macedonian, and Sorbian cultures. In Japanese it is written with characters meaning flower, and in Korean it can mean one or first, reflecting an entirely separate etymology. Related forms include Hannah, Anna, Hanna, and Chana.
