Jenae

Jenae is an English feminine name that appears to be a modern phonetic respelling of Janae or Jenay, themselves elaborations of Jane or Jan, which ultimately derive from the Hebrew Yohanan, meaning God is gracious. The name belongs to a broad family of feminine forms built on this Hebrew root, including Janet, Janice, and Jean. Jenae likely arose in the late twentieth century as part of a trend toward distinctive spellings of familiar names.
