Meaning and origin of Rabeeah
Read literally, the spelling suggests Rabīʿa, built on rabīʿ, the Arabic for spring, when everything grows again. Its root, r-b-ʿ, also yields the number four. Many families, however, use the spelling simply as another way to write Rābiʿa, 'fourth', after the celebrated woman saint of Basra, so the name now carries both senses. In early Arabia, Rabīʿa ibn Nizār was also the name of a large and important tribe.
