Rashdah

Rashdah is a feminine given name of Arabic origin. The form is typically associated with positive attributes such as guidance, wisdom, and maturity, and is usually derived from the Arabic root Rashd (رشـد), meaning guidance or the right path. The name Rashdah is formed with a feminine suffix, and may be transliterated in several ways, including Rashda, Rashdha, Rashdah, or Rashada, reflecting differences in Arabic-to-Latin transcription systems and regional pronunciation.

Usage and distribution vary across Arabic-speaking communities and among Muslim populations in Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and their diaspora. In some communities it is more common in urban settings and among families that favor traditional naming patterns.

Notable individuals with the name Rashdah are not widely documented in English-language reference sources, and the name has not been associated with a single widely recognized public figure. As with many Arabic names, Rashdah may appear in personal name lists, literature, or media without signifying a particular historical person.
