Azizah

Meaning of Azizah

Azizah is a feminine name of Arabic origin, derived from “Azīz,” meaning “powerful, esteemed, beloved,” and pronounced ah-ZEE-zah (/ɑːˈziːzə/). It resonates with a harmonious blend of dignified strength and tender affection, as though a name could embody both a gentle embrace and an unyielding presence. US Social Security Administration data trace its journey from six newborns in 1978 (rank 756) to a mild flourish of fifteen in 2019 (rank 929), with annual occurrences now settled between six and nine births, hovering consistently in the mid-900s—an analytical portrait of a name that never stormed the charts but has maintained a quiet, enduring appeal. It’s unlikely to dominate baby-name bingo, but that under-the-radar status only underscores its discerning charm. Like a rare bloom at the garden’s fringe, Azizah invites contemplation without clamoring for attention, offering families a richly rooted choice that feels both timeless and refreshingly distinctive.
