Mudads is in Origin.

Mudads is a masculine given name of Arabic origin, most commonly understood as a Latvianized form of Mudad. It likely derives from the Arabic root m-d-d, “to extend, supply, or support,” which yields nouns meaning “assistance, reinforcement, increase.” Because early Arabic names often reflected desirable qualities, Mudads carries connotations of help, strength, and provision. The Latvian -s ending marks the nominative masculine, while transliterations from Arabic vary: Mudad, Mudād, and occasionally Madad or Midad (the last also meaning “ink” in Arabic), depending on dialect and scholarly system.

The name appears in early Arabian genealogies: Mudad ibn ‘Amr of the Jurhum tribe is cited in Islamic tradition, with his daughter (Rāla/Rā’ilah bint Mudad) marrying the prophet Ishmael. Despite this venerable pedigree, the name is rare in modern use. Variants and related forms include Mudad, Mudād, Madad, and Midad; short forms are uncommon, and there is no established feminine equivalent.
