Raffe is a masculine name that typically functions as a shortened form of Rafael or Raphael, ultimately derived from the Hebrew name Refa'el meaning 'God has healed.' This diminutive form has a casual, approachable quality while maintaining connection to the full name's angelic associations—Raphael being one of the archangels in Judeo-Christian tradition. The spelling 'Raffe' gives the nickname a distinctive character compared to the more common 'Rafe' variant. While primarily used as a nickname historically, Raffe occasionally appears as an independent given name, particularly in European contexts. The name's brevity gives it contemporary appeal, while its heritage provides substantial meaning and history. Raffe offers a friendly, unpretentious alternative to more formal biblical names.
