Rifka, of Hebrew origin, signifies 'my little deer'. It is often used to denote grace and gentleness, reminiscent of the swift yet delicate movements of a deer.
"Rifka experienced significant fluctuations in popularity over the decades. The name's peak was in the late 1970s to early 1980s with a high of 16 births in 1981 and again in 1984. However, it seems to have fallen out of favor in recent years, with only 8 births recorded in 2022."
