Kaziah is a variant spelling of Keziah (also Kezia), a Hebrew name meaning 'cassia' — a sweet-smelling spice similar to cinnamon. In the Old Testament, Keziah was one of the three daughters of Job, described as among the most beautiful women of her time. The name carries rich biblical heritage and a sweet, spicy quality.
Variants of Keziah have seen a revival among parents drawn to biblical girl names that feel rare and meaningful. The Kaziah spelling offers a modern twist on the ancient name while retaining its spiritual resonance.
In Jewish tradition, Keziah/Kaziah connects to the story of Job's restoration and the beauty of his daughters. The cassia plant itself was used in sacred anointing oils in ancient Israel.
