Arnia is in Origin.

Arnia is a rare feminine given name with overlapping etymologies. One path traces to the Germanic root arn “eagle,” seen in names like Arne and Arnold; Arna is a documented feminine form in the Nordic world, and Arnia reads as a modern elaboration with the -ia ending. Another layer comes from Italian arnia, “beehive” (Medieval Latin arnia), giving the name a nature-inflected, industrious image. Both lines yield appealing meanings: eagle for keen sight and strength, or beehive for community and diligence.

Usage remains scattered and modern, attested in parts of Europe and the English-speaking world since the late 20th century. In South Asia it may also appear as a toponymic choice from Arnia (Jammu) or as a variant of Arni. Variants and short forms include Arna, Arniah, Arnya, Ari, Arnie, and Nia; related names include Arne, Arno, Arnold, and Arnaud.
