What is the meaning of the name Renne ?

The baby name Renne is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced REN-ee (English: /ˈrɛn.i/).

Renne is French in Origin.

Renne is a modern spelling of the French names René/Renée, ultimately from Latin Renatus, meaning "born again" or "reborn," a sense long linked with Christian baptism and spiritual renewal. The name traveled widely through French influence; Renée of France, Duchess of Ferrara (1510–1575), helped cement its prestige, and unaccented forms later entered English.

As a given name, Renne has appeared since the late 20th century in English and parts of Northern Europe, favored for its streamlined, gender-neutral look; it is also encountered as a Scandinavian surname meaning "channel, runnel" (from a word for a chute or to run), a usage that occasionally informs its given-name appeal. Variants and cognates include René, Renée, Renee, Rene; masculine Renato and feminine Renata in Romance languages; and diminutives such as Rennie/Renny and Ren. Across forms, the core meaning remains "reborn" or "renewed."
