Rennaye is English, French in Origin.

Rennaye is a contemporary English elaboration of Renée/Renae, the French feminine form of René, ultimately from Latin Renatus, meaning “reborn” or “born again.” The sense of spiritual renewal tied to early Christian baptism helped the name spread across medieval and Renaissance Europe, and it later traveled into English in various spellings. Rennaye preserves the same meaning while giving the name a distinctive, modern look; it is commonly pronounced reh-NAY.

In historical use, the form Renée was borne by Renée of France (1510–1575), Duchess of Ferrara, which fixed the name in European onomastics. English-speaking countries embraced Renee in the 19th and especially mid‑20th centuries, spawning creative variants. Related spellings include Renée, Renee, Renae, Renay, Rennae, Renea, and Ranae; the masculine René remains current in French and Spanish. Possible nicknames are Ren, Rae, Renny, and Nay.
