This is the name of one of the protagonists of Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu. In the show, it's spelled "Nya", and she is the Elemental Master of Water. She's a really strong, independent warrior woman. :)
Nya is the main protagonist of Linda Sue Park's novel Long Walk to Water. My boss forced me to read it in mid 2016 when I was about 12.When my boss and I were reading it, she pronounced it Nigh-a or Nee-a, but neither are correct. We were supposed to pronounce the N and the Y together and pronounce it NYAH.
My name is Nyah and people say it's a beautiful name.

So my name is Nyah and it's pronounced as n-ay-ahI find it hilarious because when people call me they pronounce it as nee-ya. Or if I would let them write my name they would spell it as 'Naya, Naia, Nia, etc.'Though it's really confusing to pronounce and spell my name, it's really unique :)

Love the name. Not a fan of the spelling. Much prefer Nia which can be pronounced as both knee uh or nigh uh. Quite frankly, I much prefer nigh uh (Nia).
Is this name pronounced the way it's spelt? Like "nya", the Japanese word for "meow"?

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE II! Pretty decent character. Really good name. I saw this film just before Christmas last year, and that is where I heard the name. I think it is an interesting name.
Nyah is beautiful! I first heard it on Mission Impossible II, and I fell in love with it. I'd love to use it one day if I get pregnant and have a girl one day. I agree with Jasmine who said it is refreshing. It is. It's not overused like some names.
