About Zenaya
Bright and modern, with the fashionable letter 'Z', Zenaya made its debut in the UK Top 1000 in 2022.
There are several possible origins for the name Zenaya. It could be a spin on Zeniya - a spelling variation of the Greek Xenia, meaning "hospitality". It could potentially be inspired by Zaniah, derived from Arabic and meaning "corner". It could come from the Sanaya, another Arabic name meaning "light; noble and honorable".It might also be a shortened form of the Igbo name Adaezennaya, meaning "princess".
MTV's Teen Mom UK featured Sassi Simmonds and her daughter Zena'ya Saint (often spelled as simply Zenaya) which may have brought the name to people's attention. That and perhaps its similarity to actress Zendaya's name.
Pronounced ze-NY-uh.
As of October 2026, Zenaya ranked #5404 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #4868 in 2023.
