Meaning & origin
Azi is a modern and minimalist name that entered U.S. records in 2010. With a current rank of 6,803 and a 1-in-142,340 occurrence rate in 2025, it remains exceedingly rare. Despite its recency, the name has shown a rising trajectory since 2015, peaking in 2025. Its appeal likely stems from its brevity and phonetic similarity to established names like Ezra and Asa. Azi has not been recorded in any top states, suggesting it is scattered nationally rather than concentrated regionally.
Azi appears to be a modern coinage, possibly a diminutive of biblical names such as Azariah (meaning 'God has helped' in Hebrew) or Aziz (meaning 'beloved' or 'powerful' in Arabic). Its usage as an independent given name is recent, first recorded in the United States in 2010.
