Betzayda is a feminine name of Hebrew origin that entered Spanish usage as a variant of the biblical place-name Bethsaida—literally “house of the fisher”—and is pronounced bet-sah-EE-dah (/beˈtsaɪˈða/) in Spanish. Though never a top-tier choice, its modest consistency in California—where five to seven newborn girls received the name each year from 2004 to 2007, placing it around the 369th–381st rank—speaks to its understated appeal. Balancing historical depth with a distinctive sound, Betzayda offers families a name that is both rooted in tradition and unlikely to collide with countless classmates.
