What is the meaning of the name Romah ?

The baby name Romah is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced ROH-mah,ROH-muh,/ˈroʊmə/.

Romah is Arabic, Hebrew, Italian, Latin, Sanskrit, Semitic in Origin.

Romah is most often understood as a modern, gently embellished spelling of Roma, the Latin place-name for Rome adopted as a feminine given name meaning "from Rome" or "Roman." Roma appears in Italy as a short form of Romana and as an independent name, and it entered wider English use in the late 19th and early 20th centuries; Romah preserves the sound while adding a biblical-style -h ending. Diminutives include Romy, Romie, and Romi; related forms are Romana and Romina, with Roman and Romano as masculine counterparts.

Across cultures the name also resonates with other roots: in Slavic languages Roma is a familiar nickname for the male name Roman; in South and Central Asia Roma is used independently; and it echoes Hebrew Ramah ("height") and Arabic Rahmah/Rohmah ("mercy"), which share phonetic contours but not etymology. Common variants to consider are Roma, Romah, Romy, Romi, and Romina.
