What is the meaning of the name Rinah ?

The baby name Rinah is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced REE-nah (IPA: /ˈriːnə/).

Rinah is Hebrew in Origin.

Rinah is a Hebrew name from the noun rinah (רִנָּה), meaning “joyful song,” “jubilation,” or “shout of rejoicing.” The term occurs throughout the Psalms and Hebrew liturgy, paired with words for gladness and praise. As a given name, the final h reflects the original Hebrew spelling; pronunciation is typically REE-nah, with the h silent. The shorter form Rina is common internationally.

Usage spans Jewish communities in Israel and the diaspora, where Rinah has been favored since the 20th century for its bright, devotional sense. A related biblical personal name, Rinnah (1 Chronicles 4:20), shows the same root in earlier onomastics. Variants and cognates include Rina, Rinna, Rena, and Rinnah; diminutives such as Rin or Rini appear in some languages. Rinah also overlaps with nickname traditions for names ending in -rina (e.g., Karina, Marina), further broadening its appeal.
