Abijahs is Hebrew in Origin.
Abijahs is a contemporary variant of the biblical name Abijah, sometimes modeled on Baltic -s endings for masculine names. It derives from Hebrew Aviyyah/Aviyahu (“’avi” father + “Yahu” the divine name), yielding the meaning “Yahweh is my father” or “My father is Yahweh.” The name is theophoric and historically unisex in Hebrew scripture.
In the Bible, bearers include King Abijah of Judah and the priestly division in Luke 1:5, tied to Zechariah, father of John the Baptist. It entered English via scripture and was used by Puritans in New England for both sexes before fading. Variants include Abiah, Abia, Aviyah/Aviyahu, and the short form Abi; across languages appear Spanish Abías, Portuguese Abias, Polish Abiasz, and Latvian Abijas. Abijahs keeps the classic meaning while adopting a modern -s finish; despite the look, it is singular in English use.
Nothing for Abijahs shows up in the birth registries or name datasets we track. Most often that means a rare name, a regional or heritage one, or a recent coinage. Either way, it remains a genuinely rare choice.
