Traditional Navajo names are completely different. You can't really translate English names to them at all. The Latin meaning of Deanna is divine or holy so it could be Diyin At'ééd, holy girl. That is not a really Navajo name though. Some traditional Navajo girl names are :Ádeezbaa'((she is going to lead a raid), Átsé Deezba (She is going first on a raid), Dlį́baa (Warrior Girl), Naazbaaa'(she went on a raid), or Asdzą́ą́łtsoii (yellow woman), and Ashiike Naakii ( the one with twin boys)
