Adoniia is Hebrew in Origin.

Adoniia is a modern elaboration and cross‑cultural variant, blending the Hebrew Adoniyah and the feminine Adonia, and shaped by contemporary spelling taste with a double i. In Hebrew, Adoniyah/Adoniah (אֲדֹנִיָּה) means “my lord is Yahweh,” from adoni “my lord” + Yah, the divine name. In Greek, Adonia was the women’s festival for Adonis (ultimately from Semitic adon “lord”), and the personal name Adonia arose by association; Adoniia can be read as an extended form of that line as well.

In the Bible, Adonijah is a son of King David, anchoring the name’s Hebrew strand in royal, theophoric tradition. The Greek Adonia festival was widely observed in classical cities. As a given name, Adoniia is a rare 21st‑century usage, found chiefly in English‑speaking countries; it is typically feminine but sometimes unisex. Common nicknames include Nia, Doni, and Addie.
