Haaz as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Haaz

What is the meaning of the name Haaz ?

The baby name Haaz is a boy name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced HAA-iz.

Haaz is Arabic in Origin.

Haaz is best understood, when used as a given name, as a shortened romanization of Arabic Ḥāʾiz, written حائز; a modern spelling without the hamza also appears as حايز. The form is the active participle of Classical Arabic ḥāza, from the triliteral root ḥ-w-z, concerned with taking possession, acquiring, or gaining. Its literal sense is one who possesses, acquirer, or winner.

In Arabic naming, Ḥāʾiz belongs to a familiar class of masculine participial names, though the exact Latin spelling Haaz is uncommon and can also represent unrelated surnames in Central European or immigrant records. Genealogical data place Haaz families in Pennsylvania by 1880 and later in Mexico, Hungary, the United States, and France, while Haáz and Haasz show Hungarian-style orthography. Given-name use of Haaz is rare, mostly reflecting modern transliteration preferences.
