Queen Juliana of the Netherlands is the most famous bearer of this name in my country (the Netherlands). She was named after Juliana van Stolberg.

Another famous bearer is Juliana Guillermo, the daughter of Princess Christina. Her grandmother was Juliana, queen of the Netherlands. Her family calls her: 'Julie'.

I like the name Ana. Where I live it is not one of the most frequent names. Most people, in fact, don't know that there's a saint and a day for this very name. The date is 3rd January.

A very pretty name for a girl, a great alternative to Julia.

I think that it sounds fine with either pronunciation. I have only known two "Juliana"s in my life, and they are both beautiful, intelligent, kind-hearted girls. I'm probably going to give this name to a daughter if I have one.

This is a lovely name for a girl! Great alternative to the overused Julia and Julie.

I much prefer this name to Julia. It is stronger and has more character, I think.

I love this name. It's much prettier than Julie or Julia, and fits all ages of a woman. Not like Nicole or Samantha, it's great.

My name is Juliana, and I pronounce it "Joo-lee-ANNE-ah" intead of "Joo-lee-ah-na". Everyone always comes up to me and tells me what a gorgeous name I have.

I know a little girl named Juliana, and I think it's a sweet name. There could be some trouble with the pronunciation of it though, I've heard many people saying juli-anna, but I think it sounds much better juli-ah-na.

Juliana was also the name of the mother from the animated movie Quest for Camelot - I love it a lot - both the name and the movie.

I love this name! It is GORGEOUS! It has such a pretty ring to it. What would be a good nickname though?
-- kool_babe14  5/13/2009
I prefer the pronunciation Joo-lee-AH-na.
-- Meadow  11/2/2009
I would also use Ana (AH-na) as a nickname.
-- Meadow  11/6/2009
I prefer the pronunciation Julie-Anne-Ah. Ever since I heard it in "Quest for Camelot" I have always loved the name. It is more mature than Julia and Julie which are overused and when I hear Julie or Julia the first thing that pops into my head is: "that's all?". I think Juliana completes the name.
-- Milena Scialfa  12/31/2009
It's pretty, not too overused. I prefer Giuliana, the Italian spelling.

My favorite spelling of this name, better than Julijana or Julianna. I love it! I pronounce it yoo-lee-AHN-ah.
