Rahsan is of Arabic origin and means "satisfied, content". It is a unisex name, though it's more commonly used for males. The name Rahsan is often associated with intellect and creativity, as it can be connected to the concept of being at peace and content with one's surroundings or accomplishments. In some cultures, the name may have spiritual connotations, reflecting a sense of inner tranquility or enlightenment. Spelling variations include Rasheed and Rashid, but these typically have different meanings. Rahsan is not a particularly common name in English-speaking countries, giving it an exotic and unique appeal. However, it has been used by notable figures such as American poet Rahsaan Patterson and British Muslim scholar Rahsan Ali.
