Naia actually means “insecurely tied” in Hawaiian...

Apparently it's also Basque for wave or sea foam.

Pretty, short and sweet but impactful name. One of my friends is nicknamed Naia, short for Natasha, which I think is quite refreshing and unexpected. Like Maya/Maia, I definitely prefer this Naia spelling to Naya or any other variant-- it just looks more aesthetically pleasing to me.

I couldn't stand this name because of the many spelling variations of it where I live but when Gemma Ward used it for her baby I changed my mind. I think it's so cool now.
