I’m guessing it was named by a Spanish person and that there originally used to be an accent on the “n” which would make it a “ny” sound.
I’m guessing the original spelling was Califoña
After time people have just started spelling it differently but they still saty it the same.

I think it is just from a song (The Beach Boys I believe in Surfin’ USA) and has caught on as a catch phrase of sorts.
