Miscellaneous Info for Oriane

Categories:

French Names

Used in:

French speaking countries

Additional info:

Oriane is used in France as a variant of Auriane, which has the same roots as the Italian Oriana. It comes from the Latin "aurum" meaning "gold".
The shift from "au" to "o" is a common French transcription of Latin nouns, and might also an attempt to distinguish aurum from the Latin "aura" meaning "breeze, breath".
