Revaz is Georgian in Origin.
Revaz (Georgian რევაზ) is a masculine given name rooted in Georgia, probably stemming from Persian rivaj/rivaz meaning "custom, tradition, established practice," reflecting centuries of Iranian-Georgian contact. The precise etymology is debated by scholars, but the sense of "custom" or "rite" is commonly cited in Georgian onomastic sources. It carries an old-world, dignified tone in Georgian culture.
The name appears in records from the early modern period and became especially prominent in the 19th-20th centuries. Common short forms include Rezo, while the expanded form Revazi sometimes appears in literary or formal contexts; transliterations in Cyrillic render it as Реваз. Notable bearers include film directors Revaz Chkheidze and Revaz (Rezo) Gabriadze, and football figure Revaz Dzodzuashvili, helping the name remain familiar across the Caucasus and the Georgian diaspora. Related forms in neighboring languages, such as Kurdish Rewaz, share the same Persian root and meaning.
