Douglas Harper's Etymology Dictionary
masc. proper name, in Old Testament, the Hittite husband of Bathsheba; of non-Hebrew (possibly Horite) origin, but explained by folk etymology as Hebrew Uriyyah, literally "flame of the Lord."

Uriah or Uriyah "flame of God" was the name of several men in the Hebrew Bible. It may refer to:
Usage examples of "uriah".
King David had sent Uriah the Hittite into the front line of the battle so that Bathsheba would become a widow.

I’d like to thank Uriah Heap and The Ozark Mountain Daredevils for providing the musical score.
Uriah, having taken the pony to a neighbouring stable, was at work at a desk in this room, which had a brass frame on the top to hang paper upon, and on which the writing he was making a copy of was then hanging.
Traddles,' replied Uriah, resuming his official seat, and squeezing his bony hands, laid palm to palm between his bony knees.
If any one indignantly denies that such a thing is possible in a saint, and insists that such a character is a stranger to saving grace, we would remind him of David: was not the murder of Uriah definitely planned?
But in the flesh he resembled a genetic pile-up between Struwwelpeter and Uriah Heep.
