      • Just like your dad i also got my oldest daughters name from mission impossible. I saw that film and siad that my 1st daughter will be named Nyah and thats just what i did. In african culture the meaning behind the name is “Gift for God” and to be fair that is what my Nyah is. My gift in the dark who brought me back into the light.

  4. My name is Nyah, and honestly I feel very special to be given this name. It represents me very well I’d say. To whoever is curious out there, the name Nyah means lustrous, purpose , and goal. Mainly the first two. I like to just think of it as Purpose. Because we all have a purpose. And its a beautiful name honestly. So if you are ever thinking of giving someone this name do it 🙂 if this is already your name then awesome! TWINS lol. I hope the people I meet in this world will never forget my name, its for sure one to remember.
