Meaning of Kaziah

Kaziah is a unisex given name of Hebrew origin, etymologically anchored in the theophoric suffix “-iah”—denoting “Yahweh”—and a root that conveys the notion of divine adornment, thus lending it the meaning “adorned by the Lord.” Its phonetic structure, rendered /kəˈzaɪə/, navigates seamlessly across English and Spanish-language contexts, epitomizing a subtle fusion of Semitic tradition and Latin cultural resonance. The Social Security Administration’s data depict a gradual yet tenacious ascent—from six recorded births in 1996 (rank 854) to 36 in 2024 (rank 914)—a trajectory that mirrors the way a vine steadily intertwines with its support. Often likened to a rare gemstone in naming conventions, Kaziah’s appeal lies in its capacity to balance traditional resonance with modern, cross-gender versatility, making it a distinctive choice for parents attuned to both biblical and Latin heritage.
