All around the world, Pratana (ปรารถนา 
, Pratana 
) is a common largely female, but uncommonly male first name. The first name Pratana is habitual in Thailand, where it is quite a common largely female, but uncommonly masculine name, and India, where it is an extremely rare primarily girly, but scarcely male name. Very seldom, Pratana is the last name as well as the forename.
