What is the meaning of the name Anastazia ?

The baby name Anastazia is a Female name , 5 syllables long and is pronounced {'ipa': '/ˌænəˈsteɪziə/', 'respelling': 'an-uh-STAY-zee-uh'}.

Anastazia is Greek in Origin.

Anastazia is a modern and Slavic-influenced spelling of Anastasia, the feminine form of Greek Anastasios/Anastasius, from anástasis “resurrection.” The name spread with early Christianity and gained prestige through Saint Anastasia of Sirmium, a 4th‑century martyr widely venerated in East and West. It later appeared among Byzantine and Russian nobility and remains culturally resonant due to imperial and literary associations, making it a perennial yet distinctive choice.

Anastazia echoes transliteration patterns from Cyrillic and regional spellings: compare Anastasia (English/Greek), Anastasiya (Russian), Anastasija (South Slavic/Baltic), and Polish Anastazja. Diminutives include Ana, Nastia/Nastya, Stasia/Stazia, Tasya, and Nastasya. Typically pronounced ah-nah-stah-ZEE-uh, it appeals for its luminous meaning of “resurrection” or “rebirth,” often chosen for springtime or symbolic fresh-start connotations. While rarer than Anastasia, Anastazia offers an elegant, phonetic twist that preserves the name’s deep Christian heritage and pan-European familiarity.
