Zach is English, Hebrew in Origin.
Zach is an English short form of Zachary, Zachariah, or Zechariah, ultimately from Biblical Hebrew Zekharyah or Zekharyahu. The earliest known form is the Hebrew personal name זְכַרְיָה, built from the verb zakhar, to remember, and the divine element Yah/Yahu, a shortened form of the name of Israel’s God. Its literal sense is Yah has remembered or the Lord has remembered.
Zechariah belongs to several figures in the Hebrew Bible, including the post-exilic prophet associated with the Book of Zechariah; the Greek New Testament form Zacharias names the father of John the Baptist. Zachary became established in medieval and later English use, while Zach developed as a clipped familiar form. Related forms include Zac, Zack, Zachariah, Zacharias, Zacharie, Zacarías, Zaccaria, and Zakariyya. In U.S. birth records Zach is much less frequent as a formal given name than Zachary, but it has modest independent use into the twenty-first century.
