Anaiah is a name of Hebrew origin, derived from *Anayah*, meaning “Yahweh has answered” or “God answers.” It appears in the Old Testament as the name of a priest who stood beside Ezra when he read the Law to the people. Though not widely known, the name has a quiet, spiritual resonance. No major places share its root, but it is sometimes considered a variant of Anaya or Anaiya, which have gained modest popularity in recent years. For Scottish parents, Anaiah offers a gentle, biblical choice that feels both ancient and fresh, fitting alongside other revived script
