Chozai is in Origin.

Chozai is a rare masculine given name of Hebrew origin, drawn from the Semitic root ḥzh “to see,” the source of hozeh, meaning “seer” or “visionary.” In some textual traditions of the Hebrew Bible, Hozai is named as the seer who recorded the deeds and prayer of King Manasseh (2 Chronicles 33:19); Chozai reflects an alternate transliteration, common in Germanic and French-influenced renderings where ch signals a guttural sound.

Modern usage is very uncommon, appearing sporadically in Jewish and Christian circles for its concise, strong sound and scriptural aura. Variants include Hozai, Hosai, Ḥozai, and the simplified Ozai; related forms are Hozeh/Chozeh (“seer”). The name conveys the sense “visionary,” “one who beholds,” or “prophetic observer.” Pronounced khoh-ZAI or hoh-ZAI, Chozai fits rare-Bible-name trends while remaining distinctive and linguistically authentic.
