Reza
Reza is an Arabic name, originating from the Arabic word رضا, Riḍā, which literally means 'the fact of being pleased or contented; contentment, approval". In religious context, this name is interpreted as satisfaction or "perfect contentment with God's will or decree". It is an Arabic word, and the name is neutral and not one used only by a particular sect, and is thus used widely by Muslims, Arab Christians and Arab Druze. According to Annemarie Schimmel, "riḍā is closely related to shukr", Shukr is an Arabic term denoting thankfulness and gratitude. It is also frequently given as a male first name in Shīʻa Muslim communities as the 8th Shia Imam is named Ali ar-Ridha. Sometimes alternately spelled as Ridha, Rida, Redha. The name is widely popular in Iran, as the Ali ar-Ridha is buried there.
