Meaning of Ruthanne

The name Ruthanne is a beautiful and classic choice for a baby girl. It combines the timeless names Ruth and Anne, both of which have deep historical and biblical roots. Ruth is of Hebrew origin, meaning "friend" or "companion," while Anne is derived from the Hebrew name Hannah, meaning "grace" or "favor." Together, Ruthanne embodies qualities of friendship and grace. Pronounced as ROOTH-an (/ruːθ ˈæn/), this name has been used sporadically in the United States over the past century. While it peaked in popularity during the mid-20th century, with notable occurrences in 1966 when it ranked 1736, its usage has seen a gentle decline in recent years. Despite its rarity today, Ruthanne remains an elegant and meaningful choice that carries a sense of tradition and warmth. The variation Ruthann offers a slightly different but equally charming option for parents considering this lovely name.
