Are there any girl's names that have the same/ similar meaning as the name Chana?

If you don't want to give the exact name, Chanit חנית basically means "little Chana".

I think Chaanach is an alternative name for Chana, but don't know the details, and it would be a very unusual name.

I've heard of a Cheyna (Cheina? unclear how it is spelled in English), spelled חינה, not derived from Yiddish but from the Hebrew word chein.

Bumping this if anyone has any other ideas? Have someone to name for who was named Chana but can't give it for other reasons. Wanted to give something meaning similar.

That's not really a name given in my community though...honestly I'm pretty sure there isn't one Chen in my entire neighborhood. Not counting the last name! So thinking more of something close but not exactly the same.

Interesting, I thought of those but didn't think they were close enough. I suppose they are!

Henna or Henya may be a Yiddish derivative of Chana

I don't really think there are any... Unless you connect to the style of names suggested here and feel like they are close enough to Chana
