The name Eliazar is a distinguished male name of Hebrew origin, meaning "God has helped." It is closely associated with the biblical figure Eleazar, who was the son of Aaron and served as a high priest. The name carries connotations of divine assistance and spiritual strength. In Spanish-speaking cultures, it is pronounced as eh-lee-AH-zahr (/eˈli.a.ðar/). Despite its rich historical roots, Eliazar remains relatively uncommon in the United States, with recent years seeing fewer than 50 occurrences annually. This rarity adds to its unique charm for parents seeking a meaningful and distinctive name for their child.
