History & Origin

Issaih is a variant spelling of Isaiah, from the Hebrew Yeshayahu, 'Yahweh is salvation.' The prophet Isaiah is one of the towering figures of scripture, and while Isaiah itself is enormously popular, this reshuffled spelling stayed a rare, individual take on the beloved name.

In this spelling Issaih was always rare, given to only about fourteen boys a year at its early-2000s peak, even as the standard Isaiah soared. A boy named Issaih then is in his early twenties today; the name carries the same weighty biblical meaning as its parent.

Did you know? Its parent Isaiah names one of the major Hebrew prophets and has been a top American boys' name for the last several decades.
