Azarya

Meaning of Azarya

Azarya is a warm, melodic name of Hebrew origin—pronounced ah-ZAH-ree-uh—that quietly carries the timeless meaning “God has helped.” Unisex and gently lyrical, it borrows its spirit from the ancient Azariah while feeling fresh and modern in equal measure. Though it still sits comfortably outside the top 900 most popular names in the U.S., with just a dozen or so newborns named Azarya each year, its steady climb in the mid-900s hints at growing admiration among parents seeking something meaningful yet uncommon. Picture it as a soft breeze of hope, a name that nods to resilience and divine promise without ever feeling overly grand. Whether whispered across a playground or announced in a classroom roll call, Azarya strikes a balance between strength and grace, making it a quietly inspiring choice for any child.
