Roneysha is English in Origin.

Roneysha is a modern African-American English given name, formed by blending the base Ron-/Ro- (heard in Ronald, Veronica, or the nickname Roni) with the fashionable -eisha/-esha suffix familiar from Aisha/Keisha. As such, its semantic associations are typically drawn from those sources: “life; living” (Arabic Aisha) or, by way of Nisha, “night” (Sanskrit), though as a created name it carries no fixed traditional meaning beyond its sound and familial links.

The name emerged in the United States during the late 1970s and 1980s, alongside a wave of creative, melodious -isha/-esha names in Black communities, and has remained uncommon. Variant spellings include Roneisha, Ronaysha, Roniesha, Ronisha, Ronesha, Roneshia, and Raneisha; short forms include Roni, Neysha, and Nesha. Its rhythm and stress usually fall on the second syllable: ro-NAY-sha or ro-NEE-sha, though pronunciations vary by family.
