US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Greek

Meaning: Butterfly

If you're searching for a name that encapsulates the whimsical beauty of butterflies and the spirit of freedom, consider the girl's name, Vanija. Originating from the Greek word for "butterfly," this name is as delicate and graceful as the creatures it represents. It's a delightful variant of Vanessa, the moniker famously worn by the talented Vanessa Hudgens. In her breakthrough role in High School Musical, Vanessa's character sang about soaring and flying high in the skies, much like a butterfly's dance through the heavens. By choosing Vanija, you're gifting your little one a name that embodies the essence of grace, freedom, and the boundless possibilities that await them.
