The name Ruach is a boy's name of Hebrew origin meaning "wind, spirit".

Sharp yet gentle, Ruach holds the appeal of Reuben, Malachi, and Rufus, but is far rarer than all three. Derived from a Hebrew word meaning "spirit" — as in a person's soul, mind, personality, and energy — and also "wind, air, atmosphere", it doubles up as a nature-related option and a spiritual choice.

In Judaism, the holy spirit —  that is the presence and influence of God over the universe —  is known as <em> Ruach Ha-Kodesh</em>, giving it the additional meaning of "spirit of God".
