What Does the Name Amiaz Mean?
Amiaz is a Hebrew name meaning "strength of my people." It is built from two Hebrew elements: ami (עַמִּי), "my people," and oz (עֹז), "strength" or "might." Because the two parts are simply joined rather than put in a grammatical phrase, the name is often read as the sentence-like "my people is strength" as well. The literal sense is strength or might belonging to, or identified with, one's people; the more flowing "my people is my strength" is a customary interpretation rather than a word-for-word translation.
Amiaz Name History & Origins
Both halves of Amiaz are ancient Hebrew words. Am (עַם), "people" or "nation," runs through the Hebrew Bible, and oz (עֹז), "strength," is used there for both human might and divine power - in Exodus 15:2, for example, the word appears in the phrase traditionally rendered "the LORD is my strength and my song."
Compound names beginning with the element Ami- ("my people") are old in Hebrew. The Bible contains Ammihud, Amminadab, and Amiel, and the same opening appears in modern Hebrew names such as Amichai and Amiram. Amiaz follows that pattern, using oz as the second element instead of el ("God") or chai ("life"). The name is used as a given name in Hebrew-speaking communities, especially in Israel.
