Nadav is a beautiful boy’s name of Hebrew origin, borrowed from the name Nadab. According to the Christian Bible, Nadab was the name of one of the first sons of Aaron, the brother of Moses. It was also the name of the second king of northern Israel, who succeeded to the throne after his father, King Jeroboam I. While fate for these two figures wasn’t so kind, a name like Nadav, meaning “generous,” will hopefully bring on much bigger blessings for your new addition!
