Unknown; possibly a modern variation of Nazir or Isaiah.
Nazai is a rare contemporary name with unclear etymological roots. It may be a creative blend of the Arabic name Nazir, meaning 'observer' or 'bright,' and the Hebrew name Isaiah, meaning 'salvation of the Lord.' Its usage in the United States is very recent and primarily stylistic.
About 17 boys were named Nazai in 2025.
