Nadim is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Nadim in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Nadim in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Nadim by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Nadim ranks at #6,726. That means there are 6,725 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Nadim.
In fact, the name Nadim hardly fits the trend of first names for boys. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Nadim wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1985, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 3,080, 12 parents chose it in 1985 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Nadim, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Nadim was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Nadim a few times. Among all newborn boys, it ranked 9,177, for a total of 6 babies. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Nadim seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
Meeting a man or boy named Nadim is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Nadim can be found in only two: California and New York. No other state currently has residents named Nadim. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Nadim living in one state or another. (If your name is Nadim and you live outside of California or New York, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know so we can refine our statistics even further.) Either way, the name is quite rare. The best chance of meeting a Nadim is in New York, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in New York, only 0.00008% of all male residents are called Nadim – that’s just one in 1,276,610! And even in all these states combined there are only a total of 20 men going by that name. So, if your name is Nadim, chances are you will never meet another man bearing that extraordinary first name.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: 3.0% of all common boys' names in the US begin with an N. This means that N as the first letter for boys' names is neither particularly common nor rare. The most common first letters of boys' names are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With five letters, the name Nadim is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
Thus, if 3.0% of all boys’ names start with an N, this initial letter is slightly less common than all other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are boys' names with N that are quite common in the U.S., the most common at present is Nicholas.
If your name is Nadim and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Nadim, you can simply say:

These flags are used for maritime communication - each flag represents a letter.
In the navy, sailors of two ships might wave flags to each other to send messages. A sailor holds two flags in specific positions to represent different letters.
In Morse code, letters and other characters are represented only by a series of short and long tones. For example, a short tone followed by a long tone stands for the letter A. Nadim sounds like this:
