Sanjana is read as ‘recognition’ or ‘consciousness’ through a proposed link to Sanskrit saṃjñā. Wiktionary and Monier-Williams document that word with senses including consciousness, knowledge, a sign and a name. The difficulty is the form: Sanjana, संजना, differs from saṃjñā, and the cited sources do not establish the connection between them. The meanings are therefore supported for the proposed source word, rather than verified for Sanjana itself.
No dictionary entry documents this spelling with that sense, so the meaning above is the one families use, not a dictionary definition. How we use sources.
Spelling and pronunciation
संजना is read san-ja-naa, in three syllables with a long final vowel. Sanjna follows the proposed Sanskrit word संज्ञा more closely and may be pronounced differently, including a Hindi sangya reading. These are useful distinctions when comparing the names, rather than interchangeable spellings.
