Hazina is Swahili in Origin.

Hazina is a feminine given name from Swahili, meaning “treasure, wealth, valuables.” The word entered Swahili via Arabic khazīna “treasury, storehouse,” from the Semitic root kh‑z‑n “to store, keep,” and is cognate with Persian khazaneh and Turkish hazine. In Swahili it functions both as a common noun and a personal name expressing a cherished child or hopes for prosperity, typically pronounced ha-ZEE-nah.

Use of Hazina as a given name is most common along the East African coast - Kenya, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Comoros - reflecting Indian Ocean trade-era cultural exchange; it saw modest modern growth in the late 20th century and appears in the African diaspora. Variants and related forms include Khazina (Arabic transliteration), Hazine (Turkish), Khazana/Khazanah in South Asia and Malay, and short forms like Zina or Hazi. Across these traditions the core sense remains “treasure; something kept safe.”
