Rainn is English in Origin.
Rainn is a modern, unisex English given name, a creative double-n spelling of Rain. As a word name it refers to precipitation, from Old English regn/ren, ultimately from Proto-Germanic regna. The image is gentle and elemental, carrying associations of renewal, cleansing, and fertility, which makes it popular among parents drawn to nature-inspired choices.
Used sporadically in the 20th century, Rainn gained wider notice in the 2000s through actor Rainn Wilson of The Office. The single-n form Rain is more common; related variants include Raine and Rayne, while the sound-alike Reign is a different word meaning "rule." As a surname-derived given name, Raine/Rayne can also trace to Norman Germanic roots (Ragin, "counsel") or, less commonly, echo French Reine "queen." Overall, Rainn offers a distinctive twist on a serene, element-based name with cross-gender appeal.
