Azariya is Hebrew in Origin.

Azariya is a Hebrew theophoric given name from Azaryahu/Azaryah, formed from azar "to help" + Yah(u), the divine name; it means "Yahweh has helped" or "God is my help." Azariya reflects a transliteration used in Hebrew, Slavic, and Arabic contexts; in English it most often appears as Azariah. Traditionally masculine in Hebrew, it sees modern unisex use in English-speaking circles.

The name is well attested in the Hebrew Bible: borne by priests, by the Judean king also called Uzziah, and by Daniel's companion later renamed Abednego. Through the Greek Septuagint (Azarias) and Latin Vulgate, it entered Christian naming, surviving in Eastern and Western calendars. Established variants include Azariah, Azaria, Azarias, Azarya, and Azariyah. Nicknames such as Ari, Azi, or Zari occur in contemporary usage. Azariya balances ancient faith resonance with a sleek, international profile.
