What Does the Name Halana Mean?
Halana is a rare feminine given name whose meaning is not firmly documented. It closely resembles Halina, the Polish and other Slavic form of Helena, and it also resembles Alana, but there is no established evidence that it developed from either one - names that look alike do not always share an origin. The name has likewise been listed in Hawaiian contexts, yet no specific Hawaiian meaning is reliably recorded. Because the derivation cannot be confirmed, the meaning is best described as uncertain.
Halana Name History & Origins

The name it most resembles, Halina, has a long history in Polish and other Slavic languages as a form of Helena, which in turn goes back to ancient Greek.
