About the name Juana
Juana belongs to the Spanish tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Juana first appears in Social Security records in 1880. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #485 in 1928, and in 2024 221 babies received the name — 18,605 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
