Re: Reana - hebrew?
I don't think Reana's Hebrew. I can't think of a name that it would make sense to translate that way. If it's pronounced Rina (not Rhianna), it could be from that.

Thanks for the fast reply :)Someone has told me that it means "dawn" or "sunrise" in Hebrew, but I can't find anything about it. Maybe the words sound similar or there is a different similar sounding Hebrew name with that meaning?

Dawn is Shakhar and Sunrise is Z'rikhat HaShemesh. Not even close.

Shachar is Hebrew for 'dawn' and 'morning'. There is a name, Rina, (pronounced 'REE-nah') which means 'joy'. Reana ('ree-AH-nah'?) is not a Hebrew name of which I'm aware.
