There is the believe that the "name" was lost in translation
and they call it that way of Santanas, when those wind propagate fires
the word in spanish was "Vientos de Satanas" (Satan's Winds) Heat, fire and
very strong.
common sense maybe

Lived in CA for many years. It is quite common to call
those stiff winds, "Santa Anas"; in reality they are actually
properly called, "Santanas".
