Zakariyah

Meaning of Zakariyah

Zakariyah is a vibrant twist on the ancient Hebrew name Zechariah, meaning “God remembers,” and it’s carried today with a spark of Latin flair that feels both festive and heartfelt. Heady with history—from old temple halls to sunlit Latin American plazas—this name dances off the tongue as zuh-KAR-ee-yah, like a melody you can’t stop humming. Though fewer than ten little Zakariyahs pop up each year in the U.S., each one stands out like a bright star in a calm night sky. It’s a name that whispers of faith, loyalty and the power of memory—perfect for a boy destined to light up his own story, one joyful chapter at a time.
