Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

The Ayyana that's directly mentioned in the Quran means "when", "time", while there is also another word that starts with a different letter in Arabic but in English it is written similarly, that means "woman with large eyes", "perceptive woman". This second meaning is not directly mentioned in the Quran, but its root as AIN-Y-N ("eye", "source") which is mentioned in the Quran. For more details on this name please see the main entry at: Ayana
