Nocha
to Noah
Nôach is a personal name meaning 'rest, comfort, repose.' In the Hebrew Bible, it is most notably the name of a key antediluvian patriarch recognized as the figure who survived the great flood. Derived from a root meaning 'to rest' or 'to settle', the name likely conveys the sense of tranquility or relief, possibly reflecting hopes or characteristics associated with its bearer. As a proper noun, the semantic range does not extend far beyond the individual known by this name, but as a noun the underlying root carries a range of meanings related to cessation from activity, absence of disturbance, or a settled state.
