This name has started to grow on me. I like the sound of it. I like the nickname Kizzy as well.

What do you think of Keziah? What about the nickname Kizzy?

Keziah is pretty and energetic, and Kizzy is an adorable nickname.

LOVE Keziah. Spunky and different and fabulous. I much prefer the nns Kezzy or Ziah to Kizzy though.

I love Kezia without the h. I once babysat one and fell in love with the name way back then. Her nickname is Kez, which I much prefer to Kizzy. Kizzy rhymes with Lizzy, which I've always associated as a very ditzy nickname.

How are you pronouncing it? I think it's lovely any way, gentle and understated. I can't imagine an unkind Keziah.
Not a fan of Kizzy though, I just don't like the -izzie sound, it grates a little.

Not terribly fond of Kizzy, but Keziah is a stunner. I've been thinking a bit about Keziah lately (along with Keturah, Hadassah and Esther / Hester). I don't know why Keziah is so appealing. Maybe it's the hard K and Z sounds so close together. Either way it's worth paying attention to.

I like it. It intrigues me because it seems masculine, but isn't. It has that good, shy, reserved quality about it like other feminine Biblical names, but it definitely has a bold, adventurous side. I think Kizzie is really cute, too.

I never know how it's pronounced - and that stops me getting any sort of "feel" for it.
