Across the world, Nantya (นันทยา 
, Nantya 
) is quite a rare largely feminine, but uncommonly masculine first name. The first name Nantya is characteristic of Thailand, where it is quite a rare dominantly female, but seldom male name, and India, where it is an extremely rare gender-neutral name. Very seldom, Nantya is the last name as well as the forename.
