Nayah (pronounced NYE-uh) has a quietly radiant charm—like a warm morning breeze promising a bright new day. Its origins are delightfully blended, echoing the Welsh “Nia” (bright), the Sanskrit “naya” (guidance) and even a whisper of the Hebrew “Chaya” (life)—yet Nayah feels entirely its own, a name that’s both worldly and wonderfully approachable. Though still relatively rare, its gentle rise in popularity speaks to its growing appeal among families seeking something refreshingly unique without feeling unfamiliar. Perfect for a little girl whose presence will light up every room, Nayah carries optimism, purpose and just a dash of adventure.
