Azriah is Hebrew in Origin.
Azriah is a modern English variant of the Hebrew name Azariah, from 'azar "to help" + Yah, the divine name, yielding the meaning "Yahweh has helped" or "help of God." While Azriah itself is recent, its root is ancient: Azariah is borne by multiple figures in the Hebrew Bible, including a high priest and one of Daniel’s companions (later called Abednego). The streamlined spelling Azriah likely arose to simplify the central vowel cluster and to emphasize the fashionable -iah ending.
Used as a unisex given name in contemporary English-speaking countries, Azriah remains uncommon but has appeared in U.S. and U.K. birth records since the early 2000s. Variants and related forms include Azariah, Azaryahu, Azariyah, Azaria, Azria, and the cognate Azriel. Short forms such as Azi, Zari, and Riah occur in casual use.
