Azealia is English in Origin.

Azealia is a modern, elaborated spelling of Azalea, the English flower name. Azalea itself comes from New Latin Azalea, ultimately from Greek azaléos “dry,” referencing the shrub’s preference for well-drained soils; as a given name it therefore carries the meaning “azalea (flower)” and, by root, “dry.” In the language of flowers, azaleas have been linked with temperance and devoted affection, giving Azealia a gentle, botanical aura.

Use of Azalea arose with other floral names in the Victorian era and has enjoyed a 21st-century revival; Azealia as a personal name surfaced later as a creative variant, popularized in part by the American rapper Azealia Banks. International forms include Azalia (Polish, Spanish, Russian Азалия/Azaliya), Azalea (standard English), and Azaleah or Azzalea in modern English spellings; related French Azélia/Azélie are distinct. Azealia remains uncommon yet familiar, balancing contemporary flair with garden-inspired tradition.
