Fragrance, scent, or wind
Reyah is a variant of the Arabic name Rayah or Raya, often associated with a pleasant scent or a gentle breeze. In some contexts, it is also linked to the Hebrew word for 'friend' or 'companion'. It offers a modern, airy sound that appeals to parents looking for a unique alternative to Maya or Rhea.
