History & Origin

Izayus is a contemporary American coinage that reshapes Isaiah or Isaias with a classical-looking -us close. Isaiah itself is Hebrew, 'the Lord is salvation,' but this spelling has no independent history, which we say plainly (said 'ih-ZAY-us').

In the U.S. it is very rare. Rare, coined, and biblically flavored.

Did you know? Behind Izayus stands Isaiah, Hebrew for 'the Lord is salvation' — but the -us ending is invented, giving it a Latin-flavored finish. The route is uncertain, which we note (said 'ih-ZAY-us').
