Etymology
This form could be related to the other Book of Mormon names ZORAM, ZERAM, SEEZORAM, ESROM, EZROM (an amount of silver) and ZEEZROM. (For more detailed information on each of these names, see the individual entries.) It would seem reasonable to group CEZORAM, SEEZORAM, ZORAM, and possibly ZERAM together because of the common consonants zrm. See ZORAM and ZERAM for the etymological possibilities. The former two names would then be explained as having a prefix ce- or see- which may be related to the obvious prefix ze- and the possible prefix za-. See ZENEPHI.
If, however, ce- is not a prefix, but belongs rather to the root, then CEZORAM would possibly be from a root with two initial sibilants, a very unusual combination in West Semitic.
It is also possible that CEZORAM may be related to ESROM, EZROM and ZEEZROM.
Unlikely is the suggestion that CEZORAM is related to Chi-zi-ri, the Egyptian governor of a Late Bronze Age Syrian city (LID 25, 28).
