Zakariah

Zakariah Origin and Meaning

The name Zakariah is a boy's name.

Zakariah is a masculine name representing an alternate spelling of Zechariah, which derives from the Hebrew name 'Zekharyah,' meaning 'God has remembered.' This biblical name appears in both the Old and New Testaments, most notably as the father of John the Baptist in Christian tradition. The variant spelling Zakariah combines elements of the traditional Zechariah with the more phonetic Zakariya used in Arabic-speaking cultures, making it a cross-cultural option. While less common than Zachary or Zack, Zakariah has gained some traction among parents seeking biblical names with a contemporary feel. The name carries spiritual significance while offering the friendly nicknames Zak or Zeke, combining traditional roots with modern appeal.
