Derived from the Greek word 'xenos' meaning 'stranger' or 'foreign guest,' it relates to the concept of hospitality and kindness toward travelers—a highly valued virtue in ancient Greek culture. The double 'e' spelling gives Xeenia a distinctive, modern twist on the traditional form. While extremely rare in English-speaking countries, the traditional form Xenia has more usage particularly in Eastern European countries and Russia.
