Bird, flight, or earth
Aia is a name with diverse roots, appearing in Basque as a word for 'earth' and in Hebrew as a variant of Ayah, meaning 'bird' or 'kite.' It also has connections to Japanese culture and Greek mythology. Its brevity and vowel-heavy sound make it part of the modern trend for short, airy names.
