Mozes
Mozes Origin and Meaning
Mozes is a variation of Moses, a name with ancient Hebrew origins meaning "drawn out of the water," referring to the biblical account of baby Moses being rescued from the Nile River. This particular spelling with a 'z' instead of 's' and without the second 's' reflects Dutch, Hungarian, and some Eastern European naming traditions. While the biblical Moses is one of history's most significant religious figures who led the Israelites out of Egypt, the Mozes spelling gives the name a distinctive European flavor. Though less common than the standard Moses, this variant maintains the name's powerful historical and religious significance while offering a slightly different visual and phonetic quality. The name suggests leadership, wisdom, and divine guidance.
