Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Pochádza z hebrejského mena Zəḵaryāh (זְכַרְיָה), prípadne z jeho dlhšej podoby Zəḵaryāhū (זְכַרְיָהוּ). Meno sa skladá zo slovesa zāḵar vo význame „pamätať, rozpamätať sa“ a teoforického prvku yāh, skrátenej podoby mena Jahve. Vykladá sa ako „Jahve pamätá“ alebo „Jahve sa rozpamätal“. Do slovenčiny sa dostalo prostredníctvom gréckeho Zacharias a latinského Zacharias.
