Mattiya is Hebrew in Origin.
Mattiya is a Semitic given name deriving from Hebrew Matityahu, built from matan “gift” + the theophoric element -yahu (“Yahweh”), hence “gift of God.” Shortened forms such as Mattiyah/Matya appear in Biblical and Rabbinic Hebrew and Jewish Aramaic; English Bibles render related names as Mattithiah, while Second Temple history remembers Matityahu (Mattathias), patriarch of the Maccabees. The spelling Mattiya reflects modern transliteration, typically used in Jewish communities.
Through Greek and Latin intermediaries (Matthias, Matthaeus/Matthaios), the name produced a wide family of variants: Matthew and Matthias (English), Matteo and Mattia (Italian), Matías/Matias (Spanish/Portuguese), Mathieu/Matthias (French), Mattias (Scandinavian/German), Máté (Hungarian), Matija/Matej/Mateja (Slavic), and Matvey/Matvei (Russian). Nicknames include Mati, Matti, and Matty. Related Hebrew forms are Matityahu and Mattityah. Feminine counterparts such as Mattea exist in some languages. Mattiya today carries a timeless, faith-linked meaning while remaining distinctive.
