The baby name Aiah is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced AY-uh (ˈeɪə) or AH-yah (ɑːˈjɑː).
Aiah is Arabic in Origin.
Aiah is a Hebrew name (’āyāh) meaning “bird of prey,” often rendered “kite” or “falcon.” In the Hebrew Bible it appears as a masculine given name: the father of Rizpah, King Saul’s concubine (2 Samuel 3:7; 21:8–11), and as a Horite figure listed among the descendants of Seir (Genesis 36:24; frequently spelled Ajah in older translations). The image suggests keen sight and swift strength, qualities associated with raptors.
Variants include Ajah, Ayah, and the modern Hebrew short form Aya. Usage today is rare but occasionally adopted as a unisex choice in Jewish and broader communities drawn to its avian meaning and brief, melodic shape. Note that Arabic Ayah (آية) is a separate feminine name meaning “sign, miracle; Qur’anic verse,” and Japanese Aya is unrelated despite identical spelling.
