Rennee is French in Origin.

Rennee is a contemporary English respelling of Renée, the French feminine form of René, from Latin Renatus meaning reborn or born again. In French, Renée carries an acute accent to mark the -ay sound; English dropped the diacritic to give Renee, and Rennee amplifies the same pronunciation with doubled letters; this spelling isn’t standard in French. The name conveys themes of renewal, baptism, and fresh beginnings rooted in late Latin Christian usage.

Use of Renée/Renee spread from France, where René appeared in medieval records, to wider Europe; a notable bearer was Renée of France (1510–1575), Duchess of Ferrara and patron of reformers. In the English-speaking world it rose in the mid-20th century and remains familiar, while Rennee itself is rare and modern. Related forms include Renée/Renee, Renae, Renea, Rina/Rena (nicknames), and cognates Renata/Renate (f.), Renato/René (m.).
