Reniah is English in Origin.

Reniah is a modern, cross-cultural given name in English usage, likely created by combining the stem Ren- with the evocative -iah ending found in many Biblical names. The Ren- element may draw from French Renée (ultimately Latin Renatus, "reborn") or from Hebrew Rina, meaning "joy" or "song"; it also overlaps with Arabic Rania/Raniya, "one who gazes attentively," often associated with regal poise. As a result, Reniah is variously interpreted as "reborn," "joyful song," or "queenly gaze," rather than having a single fixed etymology.

Documented chiefly in late-20th and early-21st-century records, the name remains uncommon but stylistically familiar due to its Biblical-sounding cadence. Variants include Reniyah, Reniya, Renaya, and Renia; related forms are Renée, Renata, Rina, and Rania/Raniah. The -iah spelling lends a spiritual or Hebraic flavor without implying a specific theophoric meaning.
