Nadhir (Arabic: نذير) is a masculine Arabic given name meaning “warner” or “one who warns,” from the triliteral root n-ḏ-r (ن-ذ-ر). In the Qur’an, prophets are described as bashīran wa nadhīran, “bearers of good news and warners,” which anchors the name’s moral, admonitory sense. Long used across Arabic- and Urdu-speaking communities and in Persian-influenced regions, it signals piety and responsibility.

Variant spellings include Nazeer, Nazir, and Nadheer; feminine forms are Nadhira and Nazeera. Usage and orthography vary with regional pronunciation and transliteration. Distinguish it from Nadir/Nader (Arabic: نادر, “rare, exceptional”), a separate name with a different root. A related counterpart is Bashir/Basheer (“bringer of good news”). Today Nadhir remains familiar from the Middle East to South Asia and the global diaspora, appreciated for its clear meaning and Qur’anic resonance.
