Isaías is Hebrew in Origin.
Isaías is the Spanish and Portuguese form of Isaiah, from Hebrew Yeshayahu (Yəsha‘yāhū), combining the verb yashaʿ “to save” with the divine name Yah(u). Its meaning is “Yahweh is salvation” or “God saves.” The form entered Iberian languages through the Greek Septuagint (Ēsaias) and the Latin Vulgate (Isaias), yielding the accented Isaías in both Spanish and Portuguese.
Borne by the 8th‑century BCE prophet associated with the Book of Isaiah, the name carried strong religious resonance in Jewish and Christian traditions. It appears in Iberian records and spread widely through colonial-era and modern Latin America; today it is familiar in Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Mexico, and U.S. Hispanic communities. Variants include Isaiah (English), Isaias (Latin/English/Tagalog), Isaïe (French), Isaia (Italian), Isaïes (Catalan), Esaias (Scandinavian), and Yeshayahu (Hebrew). Spanish and Portuguese nicknames sometimes include Isa and Isi.
