Rauf is a masculine name for the little one you'll teach to listen to others' feelings, be a supportive friend, and find opportunities to be a helper. An Arabic title, Rauf translates to "compassionate," "merciful," and "kind," three qualities your child will learn to demonstrate by watching you and their loved ones. Every time your Rauf witnesses a positive interaction or a kind deed, they'll feel motivated to do the same things! Some sources link this moniker to the Germanic title Radulf, and its definition of "wolf counsel." With your encouragement and guidance, sweet Rauf may grow into a person who everyone wants to turn to for advice.
