Talena is a unique and enchanting given name of Hawaiian origin, derived from the Hawaiian word 'talani', which means 'calm' or 'tranquil'. It is often considered a unisex name but is more commonly used for females. The name has gained popularity in recent years due to its distinctive sound and cultural significance.
The name Talena experienced significant popularity from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s, with a peak of 38 births in 1976. However, its usage declined sharply afterward, with fewer than 20 births per year since 1978, and only single-digit occurrences in recent years. Despite this decline, Talena has maintained some level of presence over the past six decades, with a total of 921 births recorded between 1960 and 2018.
