Eifionah is Welsh in Origin.

Eifionah blends Welsh roots with modern style. It builds on Eifion - a traditional Welsh given name and the toponym behind Eifionydd in Gwynedd - by adding the feminine -a/-ah ending common in English. Because Eifion itself likely denotes “of or pertaining to Eifionydd” and its deeper etymology is obscure, Eifionah is usually taken as a place-linked or heritage name rather than a literal meaning. Literary associations include the poet Eifion Wyn (pen name of Elis Humphrey Evans).

Usage is very recent and rare, seen among families seeking a distinctive Celtic-leaning choice. Likely pronunciations include EYE-vee-oh-nuh and EYE-vee-uh-nah. Variant forms: Eifiona, Eiviona, Eifionna; shortened pet names Evie, Effie, Ona. Related Welsh choices include Eira and Eirian (and Ffion, a separate name meaning “foxglove”). The scarcity of historical bearers gives parents freedom in spelling while keeping a recognizably Welsh sound.
