Meaning & History
From the name of a valley on the island of La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain). The place name is of Guanche origin, a metathesis of *adiran meaning "base, foundation; bed (of a valley)". A similar name, Aridañy, was recorded as belonging to a Guanche man from the island of Gran Canaria (late 15th century). Known bearers of this name include the Canarian-born footballers Aridane Santana (1987-) and Aridane Hernández (1989-).
