What does the name Giulianna mean?
Giulianna is a spelling of Giuliana, pronounced the same way, so it shares Giuliana's meaning and origin.
Giuliana is the Italian form of Juliana, the feminine of Latin Julianus 'of Julius', a name derived from the Roman family name Julius. Julius itself is of uncertain origin; Roman writers tied it to Iulus, son of Aeneas, and it is often said to mean 'youthful' or to be linked with Jupiter, but neither is proven. Juliana was the name of early martyrs and became common in medieval Europe.
Iūliāna (Latin, “feminine of Julianus, 'of Julius'”)
How sure is this? Probable. The derivation from Julius is clear; the meaning of Julius is not.
Other explanations you may read: Julius means 'youthful' or 'downy-bearded'.
