Meaning of Hanan
Hanan is a direct Quranic name for boys and girls that means “compassion”, “sympathy”, “love”. It is derived from the H6-N-N root which is used in Surat Maryan:
[And when the son was born and grew up, he was told,] “O John! Hold fast unto the divine Scripture with [all thy] strength!” – for We granted him wisdom while he was yet a little boy, as well as, by Our grace, [the gift of] compassion and purity; and he was [always] conscious of Us. (Quran 19:12-13)

Hanan is not a quranic name, it is an Arabic name. There is a difference. It is just an Arabic word, anyone of any religion such as Christians in the middle east are called Hanna.

Actually, it is a Quranic name, meaning the definition and word has been outlined in its text. The Quran formed the basis of the language’s eloquence that the non-Muslims have adopted the terms used from it too. However, that being said, over 95% of Arabs are Muslim.

My name is Haneen but everyone ( normally those from the north african countries) calls me Hanan instead, it annoys me extremely. Is the word Hanan more significant than Haneen in Arabic? Is there any difference between the two?

The name Hanan is always mispronounced so I think Hannaan or Hanaan is better.
I plan to call my lil bubba Hanaan and inshallah she will be my last baby.
