Hiza is most often explained as a simplified romanization of the Urdu–Persian word for autumn: Khizān/Khazān (Urdu خزاں, Persian خزان). The core meaning is the season of fall, evoking ripeness, change, and a golden, wistful beauty frequently celebrated in Urdu poetry and ghazals. As a given name it is typically feminine, though it can be treated as unisex in contemporary South Asian contexts. It is not a classical Arabic given name but is intelligible across Persianate and Urdu literary traditions.

Usage is modern and relatively rare, appearing in Pakistan, northern India, and diaspora communities from the late 20th century onward. Common variants and spellings include Khiza, Khizah, Khizaan, and Khizān; related seasonal names include Bahar or Bahaar (spring). Note that in Japanese hiza simply means knee and is not a traditional personal name, so this resemblance is coincidental.
