Gracious
Zanaiya is a modern American creation, likely a phonetic variation of Zaniyah or a blend of the Hebrew name Jane and the Arabic name Inaya. It follows the contemporary trend of adding a 'Z' prefix to traditional sounds to create a unique, melodic identity. While its roots are eclectic, it is most frequently associated with the meaning 'God is gracious' or 'gift'.
