Jessiah

Jessiah is a modern respelling and reimagining of the ancient Hebrew name Josiah, meaning 'God supports' or 'God heals.' The original Josiah was a righteous king of Judah. This variant carries the same profound spiritual resonance, first appearing in records in the late 1970s, subtly shifting its sound while retaining its deeply faithful origin.

Saying 'Jessiah' feels like a gentle, reassuring hand on your shoulder. It’s a name that carries the weight of divine support and healing, a comfort you will feel when you whisper it to your son. Writing it on his baby book, you'll feel the profound wish for him to be a source of strength and wellness for himself and others. It’s a name that suggests a faithful, wise soul.
