Etymology

Related to the Arabic root ุฑ-ุฌ-ูˆ (r-j-w, 'to hope for'); glossed in some regional usage.

Notable Historical Usage

Arabic builds its vocabulary on consonantal roots, usually of three letters, poured into fixed patterns: one root yields the verb, the doer, the thing done and the place it happens. Names are drawn straight from that system, which is why a single root can stand behind a whole family of related names that look and sound like kin.

A less commonly used given name, found across various Muslim-majority regions.
