 Ca·na /ˈkenə/

From: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

 Cana
    reedy, a town of Galilee, near Capernaum. Here our Lord wrought
    his first miracle, the turning of water into wine (John 2:1-11;
    4:46). It is also mentioned as the birth-place of Nathanael
    (21:2). It is not mentioned in the Old Testament. It has been
    identified with the modern Kana el-Jelil, also called Khurbet
    Kana, a place 8 or 9 miles north of Nazareth. Others have
    identified it with Kefr Kenna, which lies on the direct road to
    the Sea of Galilee, about 5 miles north-east of Nazareth, and 12
    in a direct course from Tiberias. It is called "Cana of
    Galilee," to distinguish it from Cana of Asher (Josh. 19:28).

From: Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's)

 Cana, zeal; jealousy; possession
