Rashod Origin and Meaning

The name Rashod is a boy's name.

Rashod appears to be a variant spelling of Rashad, a name with Arabic origins. In Arabic, Rashad (رشاد) means 'good judgment,' 'righteousness,' or 'guidance.' The name entered broader American naming patterns during the mid-to-late 20th century, with various spelling variations emerging. The spelling with 'o' instead of 'a' in the second syllable likely reflects phonetic preferences or the desire for a distinctive variant. Rashod gained some recognition in the 1990s, though it has generally been less common than the Rashad spelling.

Usage patterns show consistent though modest presence in naming records over recent decades, representing a name with meaningful heritage that remains relatively distinctive in most communities.
