What does the name Jasiah mean?
Jasiah is a modern American boy's name, recorded in the US only in recent decades. Wiktionary lists it without an etymology. It looks like a blend of Jase or Jason with Josiah, the biblical king whose Hebrew name DMNES glosses "healed, supported by Yahweh", but no source documents this formation, so no meaning is given.
How sure is this? Not documented. Undocumented modern formation.
Related names: Josiah, Jase, Isaiah.
