Itzae is a feminine name with Mayan origins, connected to the ancient Itza Maya people who inhabited parts of what is now Guatemala and Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. The name likely derives from 'Itz,' meaning 'magical' or 'enchanted,' and is associated with the sacred cenotes (natural water-filled sinkholes) that were central to Maya cosmology. Itzae carries connotations of mysticism, ancient wisdom, and connection to nature. Though rare globally, it has seen some usage among families celebrating indigenous Mesoamerican heritage or seeking names with deep historical roots. The name offers a distinctive sound pattern with its combination of consonants and vowels, making it both memorable and meaningful for those drawn to names with pre-Columbian American connections.
