Meaning & origin

Isahi is a modern Spanish variant of the biblical name Isaiah, first recorded in U.S. data in 1999. It saw its peak popularity in 2006, and after a period of decline, it has been rising again since 2022. In 2025, it ranked 12,008, with an incidence of about 1 in 341,615 boys. The name remains relatively rare but is gaining traction, particularly in communities where Spanish and English blend. Its sound is distinctive yet familiar, offering a fresh take on a classic name. The absence of strong regional concentration suggests wide but scattered use.

Isahi is likely a Spanish variant of Isaiah, derived from the Hebrew name Yeshayahu, meaning 'Yahweh is salvation'. It emerged in Spanish-speaking communities toward the end of the 20th century, gaining modest use in the United States after 1999. The spelling reflects a phonetic adaptation of the biblical name.
