Name meaning and origin

Nihad comes from the word nihad (a noun formed from the verb to place, to create) in the Persian language and means creation, nature, disposition, character; that is, it points to the inner qualities a person is born with. The word entered Azerbaijani through the Persian literary tradition and has long been used as a male name.

Nihad is today one of the widely used, recognizable modern male names in Azerbaijan and is a close but separately established written form of the name Nihat, which comes from the same Persian root. The name is also used among other Muslim peoples such as those of Bosnia, and it gives parents the opportunity to wish their child a kind nature and a healthy character.
