Nadia is a female name used predominantly in Spain, Greece, Italy, Romania, Russia, Portugal, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, Macedonia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Latin America, and some countries in the Middle East such as Jordan, Morocco, Algeria, Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. Its origins are in the Slavic and Ancient Greek languages. Variations include: Nadja, Nadya, Nadine, Nadiya, Nadiyya, Nadija , Nadiyeh and Nadinah.

The name Nadia means hope in many Slavic languages, e.g. Ukrainian Nadiya (Надія, accent on the "i"), Belarusian Nadzeya (Надзея, accent on the "e"), and Old Polish Nadzieja, all of which are derived from Old East Slavic. In Bulgarian and Russian, on the other hand, Nadia or Nadya (Надя, accent on first syllable) is the diminutive form of the full name Nadyezhda (Надежда), meaning "hope" and derived from Old Church Slavonic, which it entered as a translation of the Greek word ελπίς (Elpis), with the same meaning.
