Litonya is a name attributed to the Miwok people of California, meaning "darting hummingbird" — the quick, iridescent bird sacred to many Native American traditions.
Litonya is rare but distinctive.
Litonya does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Litonya reduce to 6, The Nurturer. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
