Around the globe, Riyat (Riyat 
, Рият 
, ริยาด 
) is a rare principally masculine, but very infrequently feminine given name. The forename Riyat is habitual in Saudi Arabia, where it is a rare masculine name, Kazakhstan, where it is a very rare dominantly boy's, but uncommonly girly name, and Indonesia, where it is a very rare boy's name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in India, Indonesia, and Saudi Arabia. Likewise, Riyat is the last name as well as the forename.
