Xenna is Greek in Origin.
Xenna is a modern, rare feminine given name, most often viewed as a contemporary elaboration of Xena or a streamlined spin on Xenia. These Greek-rooted forms derive from xénos, “guest, stranger,” source of the cultural ideal xenia, “hospitality.” By extension, Xenna is interpreted with meanings such as “welcoming,” “hospitable,” or “kind to strangers.” Its sound also overlaps with Zenna/Zena, which have independent histories, but the double-n spelling sets Xenna apart with a sleek, invented feel.
Usage appears in English-speaking countries from the late 20th century and gained modest visibility alongside the 1990s popularity of Xena: Warrior Princess, yet it remains very uncommon and typically absent from top-1000 lists. Variants and cognates include Xena, Xenia, Xénia (Hungarian), and the Slavic Ksenia/Kseniya; related lookalikes are Zenna and Zena. Possible nicknames are Xen, Xeni, and Enna.
