personal name; a Simeonite and a son of Rehoboam
Ziza appears as the name of two individuals: a Simeonite leader listed in the genealogies of 1 Chronicles 4:37, and a son of King Rehoboam mentioned in 2 Chronicles 11:20. The name may be related to the word for 'moving creatures' or could represent a diminutive or affectionate form of another name. The Septuagint offers varied transliterations, reflecting uncertainty about the name's significance. Both occurrences are genealogical, preserving family lines without narrative detail.

1. sense 1 — A masculine proper name borne by two men in Israel's genealogical records. The Simeonite Ziza appears in a list of tribal leaders, while Rehoboam's son Ziza is noted among the royal offspring of Judah's first divided-kingdom monarch. The name's etymology remains unclear—possibly linked to 'abundance' or 'movement,' or perhaps a nickname. Its preservation in Chronicles reflects the Chronicler's concern to maintain tribal and dynastic memory, even when narrative details are absent. 2×
