History & Origin

Zabdi is a biblical Hebrew name meaning 'my gift' or 'my endowment,' from a root meaning 'to give.' It appears in the Hebrew Bible, notably in the genealogy of Achan in the Book of Joshua, and is related to fuller names such as Zebadiah, 'the Lord has given.' In the United States it has surfaced quietly, often within Spanish-speaking Christian families who draw on scriptural names.

The name has always been rare in American use, given to only about sixteen girls a year at its modest peak in the late two-thousands. Though the biblical bearer is a man, its recent American use has leaned toward girls.

Did you know? In the Book of Joshua, Zabdi is named as an ancestor of Achan of the tribe of Judah, placing the name among the older layers of the Hebrew Bible.
