Jasiah

US Popularity Rank: 1003

Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: God heals, God will save

If you're looking to share your faith with baby, why not bring new life to a classic biblical name? Like Isaiah and Messiah, Jasiah is a boy's name rooted in the Hebrew bible. It's derived from Josiah, meaning "God heals" or "God will save," referring to the King of Judah. After his father passed, Josiah acceded to the throne at the tender age of eight and became one of Judah's most beloved kings. Dedicated to his faith and scripture, he made reforms after the discovery of the Law of Moses and initiated a return to worshipping Yahweh. Although Jasiah boasts a more modern spelling, its rich spiritual origins make it a lovely choice for honoring baby's Hebrew roots.
