The name has seen continued usage in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese-speaking regions, though it remains relatively uncommon. Rufa has a classic, simple elegance with its two syllables and straightforward pronunciation. While never reaching mainstream popularity in English-speaking countries, the name has endured through centuries and maintains appeal for parents seeking a distinctive yet historically grounded name with Latin roots.
