The name Rawh is a classic masculine title rooted in Arabic tradition. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Spirit; Refreshment', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

While popular in Arabic regions, Rawh has a modern appeal that transcends borders. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Rawh comes from the Arabic root r-w-h, meaning "spirit" or ease. The Quran (12:87) uses this word in Ya'qub's counsel, "do not despair of the mercy (rawh) of Allah."
