What is the meaning of the name Naweed ?

The baby name Naweed is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /nəˈviːd/ or /nɑːˈviːd/ — nah-VEED (nuh-VEED).

Naweed is Persian in Origin.

Naweed is a masculine given name of Persian origin meaning “good news” or “glad tidings.” It derives from the Persian lexeme navīd (نوید), a common literary word, and is pronounced nah-VEED; the spelling Naweed reflects the long final vowel. The name is used in Dari and Tajik Persian and passed into Urdu with the same script and sense.

Used throughout the Persianate world - from Iran and Afghanistan to South Asia - the name appears in classical verse as navīd-e bahār (“tidings of spring”), making it a poetic emblem of hope and auspicious beginnings. Variants include Navid (standard transliteration), Naveed (Urdu/Anglicized), Nawid and Naved (regional spellings), and the scholarly Navīd; feminine counterparts in Urdu and Persian include Naveeda/Navida. Today Naweed remains familiar among Iranian, Afghan, and Pakistani communities and in their diasporas, chosen for its uplifting, secular-friendly meaning and elegant cultural resonance.
