For clarification -- Ariana is pronounced Are-ee-ah-na. (No "airy" and no "anna.")
The name Ariana is from the Greek name Ariadne ("most holy", "Holy one"; Cretan Greek αρι [ari] "most" and αδνος [adnos] "holy").
That is the translation/orgin I find on most baby name sites. Some other origins found less commonly were:
Welsh: meaning silver
Latin: (aria) meaning melody or song
Persian: meaning Persian, nobility
