What Does the Name Zekari Mean?

The name goes back to Hebrew Zekharyah (זְכַרְיָה), formed from zakhar, "to remember," and Yah, a short form of the divine name. Its literal sense is "Yahweh has remembered," conventionally rendered "God has remembered." The Zek- spelling reflects a transliteration of the Hebrew opening more closely than the standard English Zach-.
Zekari Name History & Origins
Zechariah is the name of a prophet in the Hebrew Bible and the traditional author of the Book of Zechariah. The Greek New Testament uses Zacharias for the name, including for the father of John the Baptist; Latin retained Zacharias, and English Zachary developed from that tradition. Zekari follows the same biblical root but is a distinct spelling. Related transliterated forms include Zekarias, which shares the Zek- opening. As a variant spelling, Zekari does not have a separate etymology; its form follows the same biblical root.
