Reveccah is Hebrew in Origin.
Reveccah is a contemporary ornamental respelling of the classic Rebecca/Rebekah, ultimately from Hebrew Rivqah (רִבְקָה). The root r-b-q is commonly glossed “to tie, bind,” yielding senses such as “joined, bound” and by extension “captivating.” In the Hebrew Bible, Rebekah is the wife of Isaac and mother of Esau and Jacob, a matriarch whose name entered Greek and Latin as Rebekka/Rebecca. Adoption across Europe followed Christian scripture; in English it gained steady use after the Reformation and rose again with literary visibility via Scott’s Ivanhoe and Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca.
The spelling Reveccah inserts a visible v that echoes the sound present in Rivqah and blends features of Rebecca and Rebekah while keeping the pronunciation reh-BEK-ə. International variants include Rebecca (English, Italian), Rebekah (English Bible form), Rebeca (Spanish/Portuguese), Rébecca (French), Rebecka (Scandinavian), and Rivka/Rivkah with Yiddish Rivke. Diminutives include Becca, Becky, Bex, and Reba.
Reveccah does not appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. This usually means it's either extremely rare, a regional/traditional name not captured by official statistics, or a brand-new coinage. Use it knowing your child will almost certainly be the only one in the room.
