Rudabet
I'm looking for some information about Rudabet. I know it's a female name, but do not know its ethnic origins or it's meaning. Does anyone have any information on this name?Thanks!

The name Rudabet comes from an Iranian folk tale about the King's beautiful daughter Rudabet and her eventual mate Zal. I believe Rudabet means "river".

Yes. Rudabet derives from the Persian Rudabé, a character in the Persian Book of Kings (Shahnameh)
