Chaenea is in Origin.

Chaenea is a rare modern given name, typically feminine, whose form suggests a blended origin. Chae appears in Korean given names (variously written with hanja such as 彩 'color/brightness' or 采 'gather/ornament'), and Nea functions in Scandinavia and Finland as a short form of Linnea and in Greek as nea 'new.' Combined, the name can evoke 'new brightness' or echo Linnea's lime tree symbolism; its exact sense depends on the source one favors.

Usage surfaces in late-20th- and early-21st-century English-speaking records as part of creative elaborations on Chae and Nea, with no established saintly or royal tradition. Variants include Chaena, Chenae, Chenea, Chae-Nea, and Chaynea; related forms are Chae, Nea, Nia, and Linnea. Common nicknames are Chae and Nea. Pronunciations vary, often CHAY-nee-uh in English, though shay-NEE-uh is also heard.
