What is the meaning of the name Racha ?

The baby name Racha is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced RAH-sha (IPA: /ˈrɑːʃə/),RA-cha (English-like variant: /ˈrætʃə/).

Racha is Arabic in Origin.

Racha is a feminine given name of Arabic origin, a Maghrebi/Francophone transliteration of Rasha (Arabic رشا, raša), the common noun for a young gazelle or fawn. The image of the rasha in Arabic culture conveys grace, agility, innocence, and luminous eyes, making the name a poetic emblem of beauty.

As a personal name it appears across the Levant and North Africa in the 20th–21st centuries, with roots in classical Arabic love poetry where the gazelle is a stock metaphor for the beloved. Variants and spellings include Rasha (standard), Rachaa, Raša, and, with diacritics in French, Rachâ. Related names include Ghazal and Ghazala. Racha is unrelated to the Thai/Sanskrit royal title Raja/Racha and to the Aramaic term Raca; it is also distinct from the Georgian toponym Racha.
