Zedikiah
Zedikiah Origin and Meaning
Zedikiah is a masculine name that appears to be a variant of the biblical name Zedekiah, which means 'justice of Yahweh' or 'righteousness of God' in Hebrew. In the Bible, Zedekiah was the last king of Judah before the Babylonian exile. The variant spelling with an 'i' instead of 'e' gives the traditional name a slightly more modern feel while maintaining its strong historical and religious connections. Zedikiah is quite rare as a given name but offers rich historical significance and a powerful meaning. The name has a strong, dignified quality with its four syllables and distinctive 'Z' beginning. It might appeal to parents seeking a name with biblical roots that remains uncommon and distinctive, while offering nickname possibilities such as Zed or Zedi.
