With Azariah and Azriel in the Top 1000, and Ezra, Josiah, and Isaiah in the Top 100, it makes sense that this lesser known Hebrew choice is being revived in the US. Most likely deriving from Uzziah or Azaziah, Azaiah, it was a fast rising choice in 2024 when it rose more than 350 places, entering the Top 1000 for the first time.
Chosen for around 270 boys and 24 girls, for now it may appeal to those who like Azariah but don't want a name that is split 40:60 between the sexes.
Pronounced ah-ZY-ah.
As of October 2026, Azaiah ranked #4778 in US births in 2025 SSA.
