Indiya is a modern phonetic variant of India, a place-name turned given name. The toponym derives from Greek and Latin India, via Old Persian Hinduš, ultimately from Sanskrit Sindhu, meaning “river; the Indus,” hence “land of the Indus.” The spelling Indiya mirrors the Hindi/Urdu form इंडिया/انڈیا (Iṇḍiyā), matching the three-syllable pronunciation used in many accents.

Used as a personal name in English since at least the 17th century, India gained fashion among the British gentry in the 19th century and saw broader revival in the late 20th century alongside other geography-inspired names. Today Indiya appears across the English-speaking world, especially in communities favoring phonetic or culturally resonant spellings. It is predominantly feminine but can be unisex.
