I think that out of all the versions to spell "Tanya", this and Tonia in my opinion are the prettiest. Then again, Tanya in general is a pretty name!
Tania is alternative spelling of Taniya. It is an Indian name. It is of Indian, Tamil, Telugu, Nepali, Sinhala, Marathi, Gujarati origin name. It is derived from the Sanskrit/ Hindi word taan तान which means tone... hence Tania /Taniya means related to tone, object of sense. In Hindi it is written as ( तानीया )

This is my cousins name. I totally agree that an I is better then the Y. Tania is actually used a lot in Ukraine and Slovakia and that's how we got it. Sweet name!
I have read that other names have derived from Tania, such as, Tanya and Tonya. And Of course Tania derived from Tatiana which has meaning of a saints name but also meaning of a Fairy Queen.
