<p>Iniga is a feminine name of Basque origin, functioning as the feminine form of Iñigo.

Iniga remains quite rare, even in the Basque Country spanning northern Spain and southwestern France. The masculine form gained some recognition through Saint Ignatius of Loyola, whose birth name was Iñigo, and more recently through Spanish footballer Iñigo Martínez. Iniga combines cultural distinctiveness with a melodic quality, featuring the pleasing alternation of consonants and vowels typical of Basque names. The name carries connotations of cultural heritage, affection, and passion from its etymological roots.</p>
