Mesziah is an unusual and distinctive given name of Hebrew origin, meaning "the anointed one" or "the Messiah." This name has gained popularity as a unique choice among parents seeking meaningful names for their children. It is pronounced /meɪˈsɪə/ in English, with the stress on the second syllable. Mesziah is often spelled with an 'i' instead of the more common 'a,' making it stand out even further amidst traditional Hebrew names like Moses or Isaiah. The name has been used by both Jewish and non-Jewish families alike, attracted to its spiritual significance without necessarily adhering to religious beliefs. While still relatively uncommon, Mesziah can be found among notable individuals, such as Mesziah Williams, a professional American football player.
