Reinata is Latin in Origin.

Reinata blends Latin roots with Iberian spelling flair. It is chiefly a variant of Renata, the feminine of Renatus meaning “reborn” (from Latin renasci, “to be born again”), with the inserted ei likely modeled on Spanish/Portuguese rei/reina spellings. The name appears in Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking contexts, particularly Lusophone Africa and Latin America, where it conveys the sense of renewal and, by folk association, a faintly regal aura.

Its use aligns with the Counter-Reformation emphasis on baptismal “rebirth,” which sustained Renata across Catholic Europe and later fed modern revivals. Noted bearer Reinata Sadimba, the Mozambican sculptor, helped cement the Reinata form in Lusophone usage. Variants and cognates include Renata (standard), Rinata (Italian), Reynata/Reynata, and Reinatta; the masculine counterpart is Renato. Nicknames: Rena, Nata, Naty/Nati, Rei, and Reny. Related queenly names - Reina and Regina - are often paired stylistically with Reinata, though their origins differ.
