Renée is the French feminine of René — from the Latin renatus (reborn) — originally a Christian baptismal name signaling spiritual rebirth.
Subject of countless 2020 Oscar retrospectives.
Renée does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Renée reduce to 8, The Visionary. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
