Haddad

Haddad is a masculine name with several origins for you and your kiddo to explore together one day. Haddad is primarily a last name of North African and Iranian usage, with roots in Arabic and Persian. Stemming from the word ḥaddād, Haddad acts as an occupational name for a blacksmith, making it perfect if getting stuck in with their hands happens to be a lifelong passion for your child. Haddad also has Hebrew origins as a variant of Hadad from the verb hadad. With a resonant meaning like "thunderer," don't be surprised if baby Haddad isn't afraid to make some noise! Hadad is the name of an ancient Semitic god of thunder, storms, lightning, and rain. While his storms brought destruction, his rain brought life, so Hadad was worshipped as a fertility god, too. The moniker Hadad also appears several times throughout Genesis and Chronicles as a name amongst royalty and a grandson of Abraham. With so much historical and faithful significance to dive into, baby Haddad may never get bored of their name.
