Rauf
Rauf or Rawuf (Arabic: رَؤُوف ra’ūf or rawūf) is an Arabic male given name or surname which is a noun and the exaggerated form of the name Raif (or Raef) meaning "kind, affectionate, benign", "sympathetic, merciful" or compassionate.
The name comes from the Arabic verb ra’afa (رَأَفَ) "to have compassion for, have mercy upon, be merciful toward".
However, the name Rauf is an exaggerated form and Raif is an agent noun which is also exaggerated in nature.
The name is also one of the names of Allah, al-Ra'uf or commonly "Ar-Ra'uf/ Rawuf", meaning "the Kind, the Pitying" or "Most Kind, the Ever-Compassionate".
