Ireny is Greek in Origin.
Ireny is a rare modern spelling related to the Greek name Eirene, source of Latin/English Irene and meaning "peace." In classical Greece, Eirene personified peace, and her name entered Christian use through several early martyrs and saints, helping the form Irene spread across the Byzantine world and later Western Europe. The spelling Ireny appears in Anglophone records as an alternative rendering, especially among Greek and Coptic communities where Irini/Eirini is transliterated in multiple ways, and it occasionally surfaces as a creative variant in English-speaking countries.
Closely related forms include Irene, Irini/Eirini (Greek), Irène (French), Irena (Central/Eastern European), Irina (Russian and broader Slavic), and Iryna (Ukrainian). Diminutives and nicknames range from Rina and Reni to Ira. While uncommon, Ireny preserves the same serene meaning and longstanding cultural associations with concord and goodwill.
