Renyta is in Origin.

Renyta is a contemporary respelling of Renita or Renata, names that trace to Latin Renatus, “reborn.” Through Christian baptismal symbolism, the Renatus/Renata family spread across Europe, yielding forms such as Renata (Italian, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese) and Renée (French). English borrowed Renée and later produced Renita as a modern diminutive; Renyta follows the same pattern, swapping y for i in a stylistic update seen in Slavic-influenced and global English naming.

Renyta remains rare and recent (late 20th-21st century), while its cognates have longer records: Renée peaked in the mid-1900s; Renata maintains broad international use; and Renita saw modest U.S. popularity in the 1960s-80s. Related variants include Renata, Renita, and Renée; masculine counterparts are Renato, René, and Renatus. Nicknames: Reni/Reny, Nita, Rena. Across all forms, the enduring meaning is "reborn; born again."
