Freiah is Norse, Scandinavian in Origin.

Freiah is a contemporary variant of Freya/Freyja, rooted in Old Norse Freyja, meaning "lady" or "noblewoman." In Norse mythology, Freyja is the goddess of love, beauty, fertility, and seidr (magic), a figure renowned for independence and allure. The form Freiah likely reflects modern English naming fashions that favor the -iah ending, while preserving the classic two-syllable sound of Freya.

Over time, the core name appears in medieval Icelandic sources and reemerged during the 19th-century Scandinavian cultural revival; it rose sharply in Britain and other English-speaking countries in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Documented variants include Freya (English), Freja (Danish/Swedish), Freyja (Icelandic), Freia (German, also popularized by Wagner), and Frøya (Norwegian). Possible short forms are Frey, Rey, and Fia. Freiah retains the auspicious sense of "lady; noblewoman," with mythic overtones of charm and strength.
