Ruthann Origin and Meaning

The name Ruthann is a girl's name.

Ruthann is a feminine name that combines the classic biblical name Ruth with the suffix 'ann.' Ruth derives from Hebrew origins, meaning 'friend,' 'companion,' or 'vision of beauty.' This combination name gained modest popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1930s and 1940s. Ruthann offers a slightly more elaborate alternative to the simpler Ruth, while maintaining its traditional roots and dignified sound. The name carries associations with loyalty and steadfastness, qualities attributed to the biblical Ruth. While less common today than in previous generations, Ruthann has a timeless quality that appeals to parents seeking a name with both classic roots and a distinctive character.
