Eziah Origin and Meaning
The name Eziah is a boy's name meaning "Yahweh is salvation; king".
Likely a variation of Isaiah, inspired by the Latin and Greek Esaias, and by the popularity of Ezra, Eziah could mean "Yahweh is salvation". Alternative Hebrew roots could include: a contracted form of Hezekiah meaning "God strengthens"; an elaboration of Ezra, to mean "Yahweh is help"; or a form of Asaiah or Aziah, meaning "God hath made".
It could also have its origins in Igbo, deriving from eze a a phrase translating to "this king".
Rarely used before the 2000s, the name has more than tripled in use in the last decade and in 2023, 73 boys were called Eziah.
