- “Sarana” in Pali and Sinhala means “refuge”.
- The Pali dictionary that I like has both words “sarana” and “saraniya“:
Concise Pali-English Dictionary
“Buddham saranam gaccami” means “I take refuge in Buddha”
Saraniya could mean “in accordance with taking refuge in X”, where X depends on where the word is used.
It says “saraniya” is “fit to be remembered”.
Either one could be right depending on the context.
