Quaadir Origin and Meaning

The name Quaadir is a boy's name.

Quaadir appears to be a variant spelling of Qadir or Qaadir, which derives from the Arabic name عبد القادر (Abd al-Qadir), meaning 'servant of the powerful' or 'servant of the capable.' The element 'Qadir' is one of the 99 names of Allah in Islamic tradition, signifying 'the Powerful' or 'the Capable.' The doubling of the 'a' in Quaadir likely represents the long vowel sound in the Arabic pronunciation. This name has been documented in various forms across Muslim communities worldwide, with this particular spelling variant appearing more recently in naming records, primarily in North America. While not among the most common names, Quaadir represents a connection to Islamic naming traditions with a distinctive spelling.
