Lenita-Grace is Spanish in Origin.
Lenita-Grace fuses Lenita, a cross-cultural diminutive of Lena/Helena, with the English virtue name Grace. Lenita occurs in Scandinavian and Iberian/Latin American use; as a pet form of Lena or Helena it goes back to Greek Helene, "torch, light." In Spanish and Portuguese, the len- element also echoes Latin lenis, "gentle, mild." Grace derives from Latin gratia, "favor, blessing," and has been widely used in English since the Puritan era.
Together the compound suggests "graceful little light" or "soothing grace." Hyphenated double names sit comfortably in the Anglophone world, while Lenita alone is documented in Finland and Brazil. Variants and close forms include Lena-Grace, Leni-Grace, Helena-Grace, or the unhyphenated Lenita Grace. Nicknames range from Leni and Nita to Gracie and LG. International echoes include Elena-Gracia (Spanish), Elena-Grazia (Italian), Helena-Graça (Portuguese), and Eleni-Charis (Greek).
