The baby name esaias is a Male name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced English: eh-SAY-əs (approx. /ɛˈseɪəs/); Spanish/Scandinavian: eh-sah-EE-ahs (approx. /e.saˈi.as/).

esaias is Hebrew in Origin.

Esaias reflects the Greek (Ēsaias) form of the biblical name Isaiah, from Hebrew Yeshayahu/Yesha‘yahu meaning “Yahweh is salvation.” Through the Septuagint and the Vulgate, the name entered Christian naming traditions; in English it famously appears in the King James New Testament as “the prophet Esaias,” while the Old Testament uses Isaiah.

Usage has been strongest in Protestant Europe, particularly Scandinavia and Finland, where Esaias became established in the 17th–19th centuries; notable bearers include Swedish poet-bishop Esaias Tegnér and the Dutch painter Esaias van de Velde. Though rare in modern English, the name carries a scholarly, liturgical aura. Related forms and variants include Isaiah (English), Isaias/Isaías (Spanish, Portuguese), Isaïe/Ésaïe (French), Isaia (Italian), Jesaja (German, Dutch), and the Hebrew Yeshayahu; Finnish diminutive Esa is common.
