Azariah is a Hebrew name meaning "Yahweh has helped," drawn from the biblical figure Azariah, a high priest in the time of King Uzziah, and also a name borne by several prophets and a king of Judah. Notable historical bearers include Azariah dei Rossi, a 16th-century Italian Jewish scholar, and Azariah of the Old Testament, who was a companion of Daniel. The name shares its root with the place name Azaria, a biblical town, though no modern city carries the name directly. Azariah is a unisex choice in Scotland, though more commonly given to boys; its variant Azaria has gained particular visibility through the character Azaria Skye in the video game *Grand Theft Auto V*, adding a modern pop-culture layer to this ancient, faith-filled name.
