Hadid

Hadid, pronounced hah-DEED (/hɑˈdid/), is a spirited Arabic name meaning “iron,” evoking the durability and resilience of a finely crafted blade. Once best known as a surname—think Pritzker Prize–winning architect Zaha Hadid or supermodels Gigi and Bella—Hadid is stepping into its own as a given name, offering fresh, modern energy. Families drawn to Hadid often imagine a child whose spirit is as steadfast as steel, ready to shape the world. No assembly required—this little iron man arrives fully forged, ready to take on life’s adventures with a wink and a grin. Though still rare in the U.S., with 10 babies named Hadid in 2024 (around a rank of 914), its popularity has gently climbed in recent years, suggesting more parents are forging a future where strength and style go hand in hand.
