Masiah

Variation of Messiah, Hebrew

"expected savior or deliverer"

Masiah Origin and Meaning

The name Masiah is a boy's name meaning "expected savior or deliverer".

No longer a forbidden choice, Messiah has risen up the US popularity charts in recent years, and as a result, some parents have been seeking alternative spelling options. Masiah is one such choice, though it may also link more closely with the Arabic word for Christ, almasih. Given to around 80 boys each year, it is considerably less popular than Messiah, which was chosen for 1909 boys in 2023.
