Seinna is in Origin.

Seinna is a modern respelling of Sienna/Siena, ultimately taken from the Tuscan city of Siena. In Italian, terra di Siena (“earth of Siena”) names the natural clay pigment whose warm reddish-brown hue gave English the color word sienna; by extension, the name suggests “from Siena,” “earthy,” or “reddish-brown.” Most English speakers pronounce Seinna like Sienna: see-EN-uh.

Siena is well known through the medieval city’s heritage and St. Catherine of Siena (14th century), but the given name Sienna rose sharply in Anglophone countries from the late 20th century, reflecting trends for place and color names and boosted by actress Sienna Miller in the 2000s. Seinna remains the rarer variant in English-speaking use. Related forms include Sienna, Siena, Siennah, Cienna, and Ciena; possible nicknames are Si, Sisi, and Enna. The name is most often feminine.
