Unknown; possibly a modern variant of Nevaeh or Devah
Deveah is a rare modern invention with no established etymological history. It is likely a creative variation of the popular name Nevaeh (Heaven spelled backward) or a stylized version of the Hebrew name Devah, which relates to a divine or celestial spark. Because it is so rare, its meaning is largely defined by the parents who choose it.
About 14 girls were named Deveah in 2025.
