What Revaz means
Where Revaz comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Revaz reaches Poland from well outside the usual Slavic and Latin stock, its origin filed simply as other. The name belongs above all to Georgia, in the Caucasus, where men have carried it for centuries. A Polish parent who writes Revaz on a form at the urząd is choosing a sound with no local cousins and no diminutive worn smooth by generations of Polish use.
Georgia knows the name well. Its short meaning, wealthy and successful, bogaty i odnoszący sukcesy, settled on Revaz as a later association rather than a documented root. Read that sense as a story the name gathered, not the thing it first meant.
One bearer gives the name a real anchor. Revaz Gabriadze, the Georgian playwright, puppeteer and film artist who lived from 1936 to 2021, founded the marionette theatre in Tbilisi and drew his own delicate stage worlds by hand. Through him the name travelled onto posters and playbills far beyond the Caucasus. For a Polish child the word arrives without a name-day in the calendar, offered as itself: Revaz, the wealthy and successful one.
