Meaning & background
(rah-WAHN): often glossed as flowing water or gazing. Meanings vary by source, so I would use it for sound first and exact gloss second. Stateside, it first appears in 1983. It now sits outside the national top 1,000, which keeps it uncommon. Only about 1,400 children have carried it, making it genuinely rare.
