Rhoinne is Irish in Origin.

Rhoinne is a rare modern given name likely forged within the British Isles naming tradition. The Rh- onset evokes Welsh orthography, while its -e ending and soft double-n align it with Irish and Scottish Gaelic forms. It is variously explained as a creative blend or respelling related to Irish Ríona/Ríoghnach (“queenly; regal”) or to Welsh Rhonwen (from rhon “spear” + gwen “white, blessed”), giving interpretations such as “queenly” or “fair spear.” Some also hear it alongside Scottish Rhona/Rona, a name tied to the Hebridean island of Rona.

In use, Rhoinne appears from the late 20th century onward in English-speaking records, remaining distinctive and seldom charting. Near-variants and cognates include Rhoine, Roinne, Rhona, Rona, Ríona/Riona, and Rhonwen; diminutives Rho and Roni/Ronnie. Its hybrid feel suits parents seeking a Celtic-tinged choice with gentle cadence and layered, uplifting meanings.
