With two distinct origins, Anaiah is a worldly name. In Arabic origins, the title is a variation of Anaya, predominantly used as a girl's name, meaning "care," "protection," and "diligence." In Hebrew origins, Anaiah is a boy's name, meaning "Yahweh has answered." In the Old Testament Anaiah is the priest who aids Ezra in the building of the temple. Either way, it is a lyrically beautiful gender-neutral name.
