Clémentine, Géraldine, Micheline) of the name Nadia (also spelled Nadja, Nadya) (Russian: Надя, romanized: Nádja, lit. 'Nadya'), itself being a pet form of the Russian virtue name Nadezhda (Russian: Надежда, romanized: Nadéžda, lit. 'Hope'; from Russian: надежда, romanized: nadéžda, lit. 'hope').[1] It is also commonly used amongst Arabic communities and may mean in Arabic: نادين, romanized: nādīn, lit. 'Admonitory/Messenger, Showerer of blessings'.
