Meaning & Origin
a female given name of modern usage
Yaretzi is a girl's baby name of Native American origin, from the Aztec (Nahuatl) language, believed to mean "you will always be loved" — one of the most tender meanings of any name in common use. It is deeply rooted in Mexican indigenous tradition.
Yaretzi has grown substantially in the United States, particularly among families of Mexican heritage who wish to honor Nahuatl cultural roots. With over 13,000 recorded births, it has become one of the more recognizable Nahuatl-origin names in American usage.
