Names that are both Hebrew and Arabic

Abia is a masculine name with ancient biblical and historical roots. It appears in the Bible as the name of several figures, including King Abijah of Judah, as Abia is the Latin form of the Hebrew name Abijah, meaning "my father is Yahweh" or "Yahweh is my father." The name carries strong religious significance in Christian, Jewish, and Islamic traditions. Beyond biblical contexts, Abia is also used in various cultures around the world, including as a Nigerian place name. While not among the most common names in Western countries, Abia has seen occasional use for boys, appreciated for its melodic sound, brevity, and meaningful spiritual heritage.

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.

Yazid is a masculine name with Arabic origins, meaning "increase" or "he who adds." It has historical significance in Islamic culture, as it was the name of several caliphs and notable figures throughout Middle Eastern history. The name carries connotations of growth, abundance, and prosperity. While traditionally popular in Arabic-speaking countries and Muslim communities worldwide, Yazid has gained limited recognition in Western countries as cultural boundaries become more fluid. The name is appreciated for its distinctive sound, meaningful etymology, and cultural significance. Yazid has a strong, concise phonetic quality with its two clear syllables and distinctive 'z' sound, making it both memorable and relatively easy to pronounce across different languages.
