With roots in Arabic, Rehman comes from the word *rahmah*, meaning mercy or compassion, and is closely linked to the divine name Ar-Rahman, “the Most Gracious,” one of the 99 names of God in Islam. The name carries deep spiritual significance for many Muslim families across the world. Notable figures include Rehman Malik, the former Interior Minister of Pakistan, and the veteran Indian actor Rehman, who starred in classic Bollywood films of the 1950s and 60s. Though not tied to a specific place, the name is sometimes used in compound forms such as Abdur Rehman
