Ezia is Italian in Origin.

Ezia is an Italian feminine given name, counterpart to Ezio, which descends from Latin Aetius (Greek Aetios) and is linked to Greek aetos “eagle.” It surfaced in Italy in the late 19th–20th centuries, never common but borne by a handful of writers and artists; its profile remains rare beside Ezio. In this lineage Ezia carries the sense “eagle-like” or “of the eagle.” Related forms include the masculine Ezio, and informal short forms such as Ezi or Zia.

In West Africa, particularly among Igbo speakers, Ezia also appears as a clipped form of longer Ezi‑ names - such as Eziaha (“good name”), Eziamaka (“good is beautiful”), or Eziafakaego (“a good share is worth more than money”). Here the root ezi means “good, genuine,” so Ezia can be understood as “good/true one.” Variants and extensions follow the same base, and usage is modern, affectionate, and often family-centered.
