Mussiah is an uncommon yet captivating first name of Hebrew origin, meaning 'saved by God'. It is primarily used for boys and offers a unique twist on traditional namesakes like Moses or Joshua. The name Mussiah has gained some recognition in recent years due to its association with prominent figures such as the American rapper, actor, and record producer, Mos Def, whose birth name was Dante Bezucci but who later changed it to Yasiin Bey and then to his current stage name, YasinAbdul-Basit. However, Mussiah remains a rare find on baby name lists, allowing those who choose it to give their child a distinctive moniker that stands out.
Mussiah had only five individuals named after it worldwide in 2017.
