MEANING & HISTORY

What does Rahma mean?

The exact Rahma entry identifies Arabic رحمة and gives the mercy or compassion sense. It separately records Arabic and Indonesian name usage.

The word’s semantic history is the basis for the explanation; it does not establish a Philippine bearer’s religion, spoken language or personality, and should not be replaced with the distinct Rahman name.
