Lannia is in Origin.
Lannia is a modern feminine given name, likely a creative blend of Lana/Lani and Nia. Lani is Hawaiian for "sky, heaven; exalted," while Nia is a Welsh name related to Niamh "bright, radiant," and in Swahili means "purpose." With the doubled n and the -ia ending, Lannia fits contemporary English naming patterns without a long-standing historical bearer. The name is rare in English-speaking countries and has not been a regular feature of major national statistics, though it appears in recent birth records and online name communities.
Variants and near-variants include Lania, Laniya/Laniyah, Lanniah, Lanya, and Lannya; related names are Lana, Alanna/Alana, Lani, and Nia. Parents sometimes interpret Lannia's meaning as "heavenly purpose" or "radiant sky," drawing on its components. Its mellifluous rhythm and soft consonants suit siblings like Eliana, Anaya, and Iliana.
