Raferty
r(a)-fer-ty,
raf(e)-rty
Origin:Irish
Meaning:Descendant of Rabhartach; Flood tide; Abundance; Prosperity wielder
Just as the sea is bound to meet the shore, baby Raferty will find joy, good luck, and happiness everywhere they go. A masculine title, Raferty is a respelling of Rafferty, the Anglicized form of the Irish last name Ó Rabhartaigh. Like many Irish last names, Raferty or Rafferty may have once denoted an individual’s familial background, as both titles mean “descendant of Rabhartach.” Raferty also shares Rabhartach’s Irish translations, “flood tide,” “abundance,” and “prosperity wielder.” In the years ahead, little Raferty might just shower the world with love, light, and positivity, using their success to achieve amazing things.
