What is the meaning of the name Robiah ?

The baby name Robiah is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced roh-BEE-uh (IPA: /roʊˈbiːə/).

Robiah is Arabic in Origin.

Robiah is a feminine given name of Arabic origin, corresponding to Rabi'ah, the feminine form of rabi' meaning "fourth." It traditionally signifies "the fourth-born (daughter)" or "woman who is fourth," and is sometimes chosen for a fourth child. In Malay and Indonesian usage, the central vowel is often rendered as "o," producing Robiah alongside Rabiah and Rabi'ah.

The name gained wide recognition through Rabi'ah al-Adawiyya, the 8th-century Sufi saint of Basra, whose legacy spread it across the Islamic world. Today it appears in Arabic-speaking regions and widely across Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, Singapore). Variants include Rabiah, Rabi'ah, Rabia, Rabiya, Rubiah, Robiya, Rabeah, Rabiaa, and Turkish Rabia/Rabiye. Nicknames include Abi, Bia, or Biah. Note that the month name Rabi' ("spring") is etymologically distinct, though it sometimes colors modern associations with renewal.
