What does Jireh mean?

The name Jireh is commonly a unisex name from the "Hebrew" origin that means "The LORD will provide".

Jireh is the second element of the Hebrew place name in Genesis 22:14, printed as Jehovahjireh in the King James Version; several modern English translations give "The LORD will provide" as the meaning of that verse. The element comes from the Hebrew verb ra'ah, "to see," and Hebrew lexicons gloss it as "he will see." No person named Jireh appears in the Hebrew Bible, so the English given name is an adoption of the place-name element rather than of an earlier personal name.
