How to spell
We really like the name Aniaha for a girl but we cannot agree on a spelling. Some variations are Aniya, Aniyah, and like I originally spelled it Aniaha. Which one looks "right" and what do you think of the name? Other ways to spell it?

Uh-Nie-Ya.....guess I could have wrote that in the first place.
I think it's Ah-ny-ah, based on the other spellings. But based on the first spelling, I wouldn't know it was pronounced like that. I would think either Aniya or Aniyah would be right, not Aniaha.

I think the spelling most likely to produce the pronunciation you want is probably Aniyah, followed by Aniya. I don't think the y is very pretty, but without it (Aniah, Ania), I want to pronounce it more like Anya (ON-yuh).
Do not use Aniaha. I cannot see how it could ever be pronounced "uh-NYE-uh."

Aniya.
Aniyah is the less-popular way to spell it, according to name voyager.
My opinion is that if you aren't sure how to spell it, don't use it. If it's not listed in any baby name resources, it's a little too UNEEK for my taste.
Aniya was #304 in the US last year, while Aniyah was #180.
I would also go with Aniya

Are you serious? WTF people?
... as in.... Annihilate? Seriously? #180?!
I'm sorry, but I'm gonna need a five minute break after this one.
WoW, you may have just ruined this name for me. I have never thought that it sounded like the first part of Annihilate but it definately does....BOOO!
