What Does the Name Zeveah Mean?
Zeveah is a rare given name of uncertain origin. It closely resembles the Hebrew feminine name Ze'evah (זְאֵבָה), from ze'ev (זְאֵב), "wolf," plus the feminine ending -ah; under that derivation the literal meaning would be "she-wolf." The English spelling omits the aleph of the Hebrew form, and the connection is based on form rather than a documented transmission. Zeveah should not be confused with Ziva (זִיוָה), "radiance," or Tzivia (צִבְיָה), "gazelle," despite superficial similarity.
Zeveah Name History & Origins
The Hebrew word ze'ev, "wolf," is old and appears as a personal name in the Book of Judges, where Zeeb is one of the Midianite leaders.

The English spelling Zeveah is rare, and its own development is not well documented; it has no widely known biblical, literary, or historical bearer. A direct line from Hebrew Ze'evah to the English spelling has not been established.
