History & Origin

Nazariah is a modern name that borrows a biblical ring from two sources: Nazareth, the Galilean town, and Azariah, the Hebrew name meaning 'God has helped'. It is not itself a scriptural name. Routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'naz-uh-RY-uh').

It appears only very rarely for girls in the U.S. Very rare, resonant, and modern.

Did you know? Azariah means 'God has helped' in Hebrew, and Nazareth is the town of Jesus' childhood. Nazariah stands between the two without belonging clearly to either — routes uncertain, which we note (said 'naz-uh-RY-uh').
