What is the meaning of the name Aolaniah ?

Aolaniah is in Origin.

Aolaniah is a contemporary blend built on the Hawaiian name Aolani, combining ao "cloud, light, dawn" and lani "heaven, sky; exalted," and finished with the Hebrew theophoric ending -iah/-yah, meaning "of Yah[weh], God." Together these elements suggest "heavenly cloud," "light of heaven," or, by Hebrew resonance, "heavenly cloud of God," a poetic image of celestial radiance, shelter, and blessing.

The form appears in modern English-language use with very low frequency and has no standing as a traditional Hawaiian or biblical personal name. It is most often chosen as a feminine name, though it can be treated as unisex. Spelling variants and near-forms include Aolani, Aolania, Aolaniya, Aolanyah, and Aolanijah; nicknames Lani, Nia, and Ao are common. The name fits current trends favoring nature imagery, Polynesian phonology, and softly theophoric endings.

Aolaniah does not appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. This usually means it's either extremely rare, a regional/traditional name not captured by official statistics, or a brand-new coinage. Use it knowing your child will almost certainly be the only one in the room.
