Schwanna is a unique and distinctive given name of German origin, derived from the Germanic elements 'scwan' meaning 'swan' and '-hild' signifying 'battle'. This name has gained popularity in recent years, particularly in Germany and other parts of Europe, as parents seek to bestow their children with uncommon yet meaningful monikers. While its pronunciation may vary slightly depending on regional accents, Schwanna is typically sounded out as /ˈʃvɑːnə/. It is often spelled without the umlaut (ä), but when used, it contributes a soft and musical touch to the name.
The name Schwanna appears to have had a consistent popularity with around five births per year between 1970 and 1974, followed by an increase to eight births in 1976 and fluctuations between six and eight births until 1979, resulting in a total of 35 births over the decade.
