Meaning & origin
Abdulhadi is a theophoric Arabic name meaning 'servant of the Guide,' formed with the divine attribute al-Hadi. It entered U.S. records in 1997 and has remained relatively rare, with its peak usage in 2015. The name has a stable trajectory, neither surging nor declining dramatically, and is most common among Muslim families. As of 2025, it ranks 6,143, with approximately 1 in 122,005 male newborns receiving the name. Though not yet widely used enough to appear in top states data, Abdulhadi carries deep religious significance and fits within the broader tradition of Arabic 'Abdul-' names.
Abdulhadi is a theophoric Arabic name formed from 'Abd al-' (servant of) and al-Hadi (the Guide), one of the 99 names of God in Islam. It follows the common pattern of Arabic compound names beginning with 'Abdul-'. The name has been used for centuries across the Muslim world, though its recorded use in the United States is relatively recent, beginning in the late 20th century.
