Around the world, منيا (منيا 
, Mennea 
) is quite a rare unisex given name. The first name منيا is habitual in Libya, where it is quite a rare female name, Egypt, where it is a rare largely boy's, but infrequently feminine name, and Kuwait, where it is a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, the name is most common in Northern Africa, particularly Egypt, Libya, and Sudan. Likewise, منيا is the last name as well as the forename.
