Orpa is a feminine name with biblical origins, appearing in the Book of Ruth as the sister-in-law of Ruth and daughter-in-law of Naomi. Unlike Ruth, who remained with Naomi, Orpa returned to her Moabite family. The name likely derives from Hebrew, possibly meaning 'neck' or 'back,' symbolizing how she turned away. While Orpah is the more common biblical spelling, Orpa represents a simplified variant. The name remains relatively rare across cultures but carries significance for those valuing biblical heritage. Its brevity and open vowel sounds give it a gentle phonetic quality. Though uncommon, Orpa appeals to parents seeking a distinctive biblical name with historical depth and a connection to ancient traditions.
