Nazar is a masculine name with multiple origins.




Christian use


As used by Christians, it means "from Nazareth," the town where Jesus Christ was said to have lived. The etymology of Nazareth from as early as Eusebius up until the 20th century has been said to derive from the Hebrew word נצר netser, meaning a "shoot" or "sprout", while the apocryphal Gospel of Phillip derives the name from Nazara meaning "truth".
Among Muslims it may also be of Persian, Arabic, or Turkic origin, see article "nazar" for etymology.
Nazario is an Italian and Spanish version of the name, Nazaire is a French version and Nazarii is a Ukrainian and Nazaryi Russian form. Other variants in use include Naz, Nasareo, Nasarrio, Nazaret, Nazarie, Nazaro, Nazarene, Nazerine and Nazor. Nazret, the Amharic word for Nazareth, is also occasionally used as a female name in Ethiopia and Eritrea, while Nazaret is also occasionally used as a name for girls in Spanish-speaking areas. According to the web site behindthename.com, all are derived from the name Nazarius, which was in use in late Roman times and was also the name of some early Christian saints and martyrs. In 2008, Nazar was the most popular name for boys born in Ukraine.
