Anastazia Origin and Meaning

Anastazia is a feminine name representing a variant spelling of Anastasia, which derives from Greek origins meaning "resurrection" or "rebirth." The name has deep historical roots, associated with Christian martyrs and Russian royalty, particularly Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna, daughter of the last Russian Tsar. This spelling variation with 'z' instead of 's' gives the classic name a contemporary twist while maintaining its elegant, regal associations.
