Andranetta is in Origin.

Andranetta is a modern English feminine given name likely created by combining Andra - related to Andrea/Andrew, from Greek Andreas (anēr, andros ‘man; warrior’, hence ‘strong, courageous’) - with the Italianate diminutive -netta, familiar from Annetta and Antoinetta. It can also be read as a blend of Andra and Netta, both established nicknames, giving the name a lyrical, elaborated form while keeping recognizable roots.

Usage is rare but attested in United States records from the early to mid‑20th century onward, with particular visibility in African‑American communities that favor inventive, melodic elaborations of classic bases. Variants include Andranette, Andraneta and the spaced Andra Netta; short forms and nicknames include Andra, Netta, Etta and Drea. The underlying sense draws from its Greek root: ‘courageous, strong,’ softened by the diminutive ending to suggest ‘little brave one’ or ‘dear strong one.’
