Nadiya is a girl’s name of Ukrainian, Russian, and Arabic origin, meaning “hope.” In Arabic languages, the name Nadiya translates to “tender” or “delicate,” which is sure to be true during baby’s early years. A multi-cultural name with umpteen iterations, Nadiya will never go out of style. Giving your little cherub an etymology like this reminds them to keep strong during the darkest of nights because the hope their name represents makes it all worthwhile.
