Adenah is Hebrew in Origin.

Adenah is a modern feminine given name most commonly interpreted as a variant of Adena/Adina, drawing on Hebrew roots ʿDN found in Eden and Edna. In Hebrew, Adina (ʿadînah) means “delicate, gentle,” while Edna/Adnah (ʿednāh) and Eden connote “delight, pleasure, rejuvenation”; Adenah blends these associations into a sense of tender delight. A rarer biblical cognate, Adnah, appears as the name of military leaders in Chronicles, anchoring the root in early Jewish usage.

The Adenah spelling emerges chiefly in contemporary English-language records; traditional Jewish communities more often use Adina or Edna. Variants and related forms include Adena, Adinah, Adina, Adnah, Edna, and the masculine Adin; nicknames such as Addie or Dina are common. Some parents also read Adenah as an allusion to the Red Sea port of Aden, giving it a subtle geographic flavor. Overall, Adenah offers a vintage Hebrew core with modern styling.
