Erinnah is English in Origin.
Erinnah is a modern feminine given name that blends Irish and classical resonances. Most bearers use it as an embellished form of Erin (from Irish Gaelic Eirinn/Eireann, "Ireland"), adding the soft -ah ending and doubling the n for rhythm. It can also be read as a creative respelling of Erinna, the name of a 4th-century BCE Greek poet; in that lineage it connects to Eirene, "peace," yielding a layered meaning of "Ireland" or "peace".
In usage, Erinnah is rare and primarily found in English-speaking countries since the early 2000s, aligning with trends for distinctive spellings of familiar names. Variants and near-relatives include Erin, Eryn, Erynn, Erinn; Erina/Erinna/Erinah; and the Greek-rooted Irene, Irina, and Irena. Short forms include Eri, Rin, and Rina. With twin etymologies and gentle cadence, Erinnah suits families seeking a name that nods to Irish heritage while evoking the classical ideal of peace.
Erinnah 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.
