Vision, dream, or flowing
Ryah is a modern variation of the Arabic name Raya or the Hebrew name Riya. It is often interpreted as meaning 'vision' or 'dream' in a spiritual context, or 'flowing' when associated with Greek roots. Its rarity in the United States makes it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a short, melodic name.
