What is the meaning of the name Reha ?

The baby name Reha is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced REH-hah (IPA: /ˈre.ha/).

Reha is Arabic, Turkish in Origin.

Reha is a multicultural given name with several intersecting roots. In Turkish it functions chiefly as a masculine name, from Ottoman Turkish rehâ, ultimately Arabic rāḥa, meaning “ease, rest, relief” and by extension “serenity” or “comfort.” The name appears in Turkish records through the 20th century and is borne by public figures, helping keep it familiar but uncommon.

In South Asian and Arabic-influenced usage, Reha can be a clipped form of Rehana (from Arabic Rayḥāna, “sweet basil; fragrant blossom”) and also aligns with Persian/Urdu rehā/rahā, “free, released,” adding a modern sense of liberation. In the West it sometimes serves as a streamlined variant of Rhea (Greek mythological mother of gods). Variants and related forms include Rehâ, Rehaa, Rehana, Rayhana, Rehan (masculine), and Rhea. Overall, Reha is a compact, cross-cultural choice conveying ease, fragrance, and freedom.
