Rafi is of Hebrew origin, derived from the word 'rafah', which means 'healing' or 'health'. It is traditionally given to boys and can also be used as a unisex name in some cultures. The name Rafi gained popularity in the mid-20th century but has since become less common. It is often associated with Middle Eastern and Jewish communities, but it can be found worldwide due to globalization and the increasing acceptance of diverse names.
