Alternate Spellings

Capturing elegance and depth, Izzah stands out as a meaningful name for your daughter. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Power', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

Pronounced as Izzah, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Izzah comes from the Arabic root '-z-z, the same root behind Aziz, meaning "to be mighty" or "cherished." It is translated as "might," "honour," or "dignity."
