Ketzia

Ketzia is a feminine name of Hebrew origin, derived from the biblical name Keziah (also spelled Kezia or Cassia), who was one of Job's daughters in the Old Testament. The name means 'cassia tree' or 'cinnamon,' referring to the aromatic bark used for perfume and spice in ancient times. This nature-inspired meaning gives the name a fragrant, sweet connotation. Ketzia remains relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, though its biblical connections give it a timeless quality. The name has seen some limited use among families seeking names with religious significance or nature associations. With its melodic sound, exotic feel, and meaningful origins, Ketzia offers an uncommon alternative to more popular biblical names, appealing to parents looking for something distinctive yet anchored in tradition.
