Rheva- there are two meanings that are possible for this name. It appears to be a derivation of the name, Reva. The Latin usage of the name means to "regain strength." Reva is also a form of Rivka. Rivka is the Jewish variation of the Hebrew name, Rebecca, meaning, "a snare."Almeda- a variant of the surname Almeida. Its usage is mostly Portugese or Spanish and comes from the Arabic habitational name, "al-medina" (the city.)

Anuskha- I couldn't find this spelling anywhere but I'm assuming it is a form of ANNUSHKA, which is Russian in its usage. It is a form of Anna meaing, "favor" or "grace."Shwanda- Again, I couldn't find this name in any legit sources so I'm going to assume it is an ebonics form of the name Wanda, meaning "wanderer."
