The baby name Izy is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced IZ-ee (/ˈɪzi/).
Izy is in Origin.
Izy is a contemporary, streamlined spelling of Izzy, the long-standing pet form applied to a range of Is-/Iz- names. In English it most often shortens Isabel/Isabella (ultimately from Hebrew Elisheva via medieval Spanish), but it also serves for Isidora/Isidore (Greek), and for Hebrew names such as Isaac, Isaiah, and Israel. As a nickname it has medieval roots with Isabel; as an independent given name, Izy has gained currency in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, fitting modern tastes for brisk, two-syllable, unisex choices.
Variants include Izzy, Izzie, Izzi, and Izi; cognate longer forms range from Isabel, Isabelle, Isobel, and Isabella to Isidora/Isidore, Isaac, Isaiah, Israel, and Isolde. The meaning varies with the source: from Isabel/Elizabeth, "God is my oath"; from Isidore, "gift of Isis"; from Isaac, "he will laugh"; from Isaiah, "Yahweh is salvation."
