<p>Ras is a concise masculine name with multicultural significance. In Ethiopian culture, particularly in the Amharic language, 'Ras' was a prestigious title meaning 'head' or 'chief,' historically given to nobility and regional governors. In Rastafarian tradition, the name connects to Ras Tafari (Emperor Haile Selassie), a significant figure. In Arabic, 'ras' means 'head' or 'cape' (as in a geographical feature). The name's brevity gives it strength and memorability, while its cultural connections provide it with depth and meaning. Though uncommon in Western countries, Ras offers parents seeking a short, powerful name with international significance a distinctive option that works well across cultural boundaries.</p>
