What is the meaning of the name Renna ?

The baby name Renna is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced REN-ə (English: /ˈrɛnə/).

Renna is English, Hebrew, Italian, Latin, Spanish in Origin.

Renna blends several streams of origin. In Italian, renna literally means "reindeer," making it a crisp, nature-inspired choice and also the source of the southern Italian surname Renna. As a given name, it is often used as a double-n spelling of Rena, which itself shortens diverse roots: Greek Eirene (Irene, "peace"), Hebrew Rinah/Rena ("joy; joyful song"), and Latin Renata ("reborn"). Depending on the lineage claimed, Renna can carry senses of peace, joy, renewal, or a wintry animal emblem.

Usage is scattered rather than traditional: the name surfaces occasionally in Italy and the United States from the late twentieth century onward, buoyed by the popularity of brisk, two-syllable -enna endings (Jenna, Brenna, Kenna) and the nickname Ren. Variants and relatives include Rena, Renah, Rina, Renata, and Irene; short forms Ren and Rennie are common. The streamlined spelling, gentle sound, and multiple positive meanings give Renna quiet, contemporary appeal.
