What is the meaning of the name Beltanya ?

The baby name Beltanya is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /bɛlˈtænjə/ — bel-TAN-yuh.

Beltanya is Germanic in Origin.

Beltanya is a rare modern feminine name likely fashioned from Beltane - the Gaelic May Day festival - combined with the melodic -anya ending familiar in Slavic and Romance names, or blended with Tanya (a diminutive of Tatiana). Beltane derives from Old Irish Beltaine, commonly glossed as “bright fire” (from bel- “bright” or a theonym Bel + tene/teine “fire”), evoking bonfires that welcomed summer. Pronunciations vary: bel-TAHN-ya or bel-TAN-yuh.

Documented use as a given name is contemporary, most visible in neopagan circles and among parents seeking seasonally themed or nature-centered choices; it does not appear in older parish rolls or classical literature. Variants and spellings include Beltania, Beltaniya, and Beltane; nicknames span Bel, Bella, and Tanya. As a name-image, Beltanya suggests “May fire,” renewal, warmth, and communal celebration. In Slavic ears it can also echo bel “white” + Tanya, adding a secondary “bright/white Tanya” nuance.
