Meaning & Origin

Uziel is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin meaning 'God is my strength' or 'strength of God.' In the Hebrew Bible, Uziel appears as a son of Kohath and grandson of Levi — a figure from the priestly tribe. The name has long been used in Sephardic Jewish communities.

With its strong Old Testament roots and the trend toward biblical names with ancient gravitas, Uziel is gaining ground alongside Ezekiel, Aziel, and Asher. It carries both spiritual depth and a distinctive, uncommon sound.
