Zedechiah is a rare masculine name of Hebrew origin. It is a variant of Zedekiah, which means 'justice of Yahweh' or 'righteousness of God.' In the Bible, Zedekiah was the name of the last king of Judah before the Babylonian exile. The name combines elements meaning 'righteous' and 'Jehovah,' reflecting strong religious significance. While historically significant, Zedechiah remains uncommon in modern usage, appealing to parents seeking a distinctive biblical name with profound meaning. The unique spelling with 'ch' instead of 'k' gives this version a distinctive character while maintaining its traditional roots.
