Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Oriána je literárne meno späté so stredovekými francúzskymi podobami Oriane, Oriande a Oriante, známymi z rytierskych románov; preslávila ho najmä hrdinka románu Amadís Galský. Pôvod týchto podôb nie je bezpečne objasnený. Za pravdepodobnú sa pokladá súvislosť s latinským slovesom oriri vo význame „vychádzať“ alebo „povstávať“. Výklad z latinského aurum, teda „zlato“, je rozšírený, no neistý; označenie mena za keltské nemá dostatočnú oporu.
