The city's name itself is likely of African origin. The name was popularized in Portugal by the telenovela A Única Mulher (2015-2017), which featured a character named Luena. The etymology of Luena remains obscure. While it is often assumed to be connected to the Angolan city, some suggest a possible relationship to names like Luana or Luciana, though no direct link has been established. There is no known meaning or root in Portuguese or other common languages. Meaning: Unknown, possibly derived from a place name. Origin: African (Angola) / Portuguese. Type: First name.
