Jazir is a spirited male name of Arabic origin, pronounced jah-ZEER (/dʒaˈziːr/) in its homeland and softened to juh-ZEER (/dʒəˈzɪər/) in English. Rooted in the word for “island,” it conjures a steadfast refuge and a welcoming spirit—like a hidden oasis on the horizon. In the United States, it’s a name that’s been quietly making waves: just 26 baby boys were named Jazir in 2024, earning it a spot at No. 898, a gentle climb from the single digits of the early 2000s. Parents drawn to cultural depth and a dash of wanderlust will love how Jazir bridges worlds, promising a lifetime of unique adventures. With so few Jazirs on the playground, every “Hi, I’m Jazir” feels like the opening line of a storybook tale—timeless, fresh, and destined to stand out.
