Oldeniah is in Origin.

Oldeniah appears to be a modern English coinage formed by combining Olden (a surname and given name related to Alden, from Old English eald “old, wise” + wine “friend”) with the Hebrew theophoric suffix -iah, seen in names like Isaiah and Josiah and referring to Yah(weh). Read this way, the name invites meanings such as “old/wise friend of God,” “ancient friend,” or more broadly “enduring friendship with the divine.” Because it is a contemporary blend rather than a classical Hebrew name, its interpretation is symbolic rather than etymologically fixed.

Documented use is very rare and largely recent, aligning with the broader trend of -iah endings in English-speaking baby naming. Variant forms include Oldeniah, Oldenia, Oldenya, and Oldeniya; related names are Alden, Olden, Nehemiah, and Zechariah. Nicknames might be Oli, Odie, Deni, or Nia. Oldeniah reads as unisex and carries a stately, archaic tone softened by the lyrical -iah ending.
