Origin: French

Meaning: Reborn

If the classic names Renee or Renata don't feel quite right, open your heart to the gender-neutral variant, Renne. This beautiful respelling is rooted in the French name René and the Latin name Renatus, which means "reborn." Renne peaked during the 1960s and '70s and again when American actress Renée Zellweger entered the rom-com scene in Hollywood. Another notable person to share this name is René Descartes, a French philosopher and mathematician known for their ground-breaking connection between geometry and algebra. Whether your little star takes to the stage or the calculator, you'll always be their first love!
