Nienna Name meanings & History
Nienna is of uncertain origin, but it is believed to have roots in the Elvish language of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Silmarillion." It is also associated with the Welsh name Nia, which means "bright" or "radiant.". The meaning of Nienna is not entirely clear, but it is often associated with sadness, sorrow, and weeping. In Tolkien's work, Nienna is a goddess of mourning and lamentation, but she is also associated with compassion and healing. Means "she who weeps" from Quenya nie "tear". According to 'The Silmarillion', Nienna is a Vala (angelic being) who constantly mourns all terrible things, though from her is learned not despair but mercy, compassion and hope. It has also been suggested that her name consists of two elements, nie combined with anna "gift", in which case it may refer to the charismatic "gift of tears" in Catholic theology. Nienna is primarily used as a feminine given name, but it could also be used as a middle name. It is a rare name and not commonly used.
