Origin

The name 'Reshahn' appears to have a modern or creative origin, possibly inspired by similar phonetic structures in Arabic or Middle Eastern languages, where it resembles names like 'Rashad' or 'Rashaan'.

Its use in Australia seems to be recent and likely influenced by multicultural naming trends.
