Ezra is Hebrew in Origin.
Ezra is a Hebrew name from ‘Ezrā (עֶזְרָא), rooted in ‘-z-r, “to help,” giving the meaning “help” or “helper”; it is also viewed as a shortened form of Azariah (“Yahweh has helped”). Through the Greek and Latin Bible, it appears as Esdras, a form still used in Spanish and Portuguese; Italian uses Esdra. Modern variants and related forms include Ezrah and the nickname-friendly Ez and Ezzie. While Turkish Esra is common, it has a different origin and meaning.
The name is tied to the biblical priest-scribe Ezra, a key figure in the restoration of Jewish life after the Babylonian exile and eponym of the Book of Ezra. Long favored in Jewish communities, Ezra entered wider English use after the Reformation’s biblical-name revival, saw American Puritan adoption, and surged again in the 21st century. Notable bearers include poet Ezra Pound, philanthropist Ezra Cornell, and author Ezra Jack Keats.
