Haddad Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

“Smith” in Syrian.

South African Surnames (1965) by Eric Rosenthal

(Syrian) One who work in metal, a smith.

Dictionary of American Family Names (1956) by Elsdon Coles Smith

User-submitted Reference

There's a tribe that lives near the Libyan city of Misurata called Al Haddad, which means 'the blacksmith'. Old residents of Misurata claim that this is a Jewish tribe, but I couldn't find any official information on this tribe. I'm from a Muslim family and my original last name from six generations ago is Al Haddad, but for some reason I don't know, we have taken the name of my fourth grand father and we don't use the original surname anymore. I don't know of any other Muslim families that have this surname. I only know of Christian and Jewish families. So I wonder if my ancestors converted to Islam and changed the last name for that reason. My family also don't look like Arabs. We have a fair complexion, freckles and many in the family have large noses, which also leads me to think that we might have Jewish origins.

- lshlsh

Another piece of information on the name Haddad is that it was also a Semitic storm-god. It means 'blacksmith' in the ancient Semitic languages, and the word was used as a surname in the Canaan region of the Middle East.

In the Aramaic-Turoyo dialect, the Haddads are also known as Hadodo. People with the surname, Hadodo, are usually Assyrians from Tur Abdin (in Turkey).

- Aktham_t

Aside from the meaning of Haddad, which is Arabic for 'blacksmith', a few records have shown direct links between the Haddad family in the Arab world where the majority reside and the Blacksmith family in Europe and the US. It's also worth mentioning that the majority of the Haddad family in Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt are Christians.

- Aktham_t

Haddad حداد, an Arabic name, is translated into English as 'blacksmith', denoting a skilled person who makes and repairs things in iron by hand.
