Meaning & background
(hee-NAH-tah): Japanese, often linked to sunny place or under the sun. Warm and bright without being literal “light.”. It enters U.S. records in American naming data in 2005. It now sits outside the national top 1,000, which keeps it uncommon. Roughly 460 people have been given the name to date — a true rarity.
