What is the meaning of the name Erzebet ?

The baby name Erzebet is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɛrʒeːbɛt/ (approx. ERZH-ay-bet).

Erzebet is Hungarian in Origin.

Erzebet is the Anglicized, diacritic-free form of Hungarian Erzsébet, the nation’s equivalent of Elizabeth. It ultimately derives from Hebrew Elisheva, interpreted as “my God is an oath” or “pledged to God,” arriving in Hungarian through Greek Elisabet and Latin Elisabeth. The name has been recorded in the Carpathian Basin since the Middle Ages and carries strong religious overtones through its Biblical roots.

In Hungary, Erzsébet surged in prestige due to Saint Elizabeth of Hungary (1207–1231), revered for charity; the Empress-Queen Elisabeth (“Sisi”) renewed its 19th‑century appeal. It remains a classic, with a Hungarian name day on November 19. Common short forms include Erzsi, Erzsike, Bözsi, and Böbe; related forms include Eliza and Elza. International counterparts span Elizabeth (English), Elisabeth (German/Scandinavian), Elżbieta (Polish), Élisabeth (French), and Elizaveta (Russian). Spelling variants: Erzsébet (standard), Erzebet (without accents).
