Nezzah is in Origin.

Nezzah is a Maghrebi Arabic feminine name, a modern spelling of Nezha (Arabic نزهة, Nuzha/Nozha), from the root n-z-h meaning both “to take a stroll, to enjoy an outing” and “to be pure, blameless.” As a given name it evokes freshness, delight, and moral integrity - often glossed as “innocence” or “honesty.”

Used widely in Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia throughout the 20th century and among Francophone diaspora, it is rare in Anglophone records. Variant forms include Nezha, Nouzha, Nuzha, Nozha, and Nezza; short forms Nez or Nezza appear informally. Though it resembles the Chinese mythic figure Nezha, the Arabic name is unrelated. Spelling Nezzah with double z reflects French-influenced transcription and contemporary styling. The name is predominantly feminine in Arabic contexts, but its crisp, two-syllable sound and virtue-leaning meaning make it adaptable in modern global naming.
