Bader Origin and Meaning

The name Bader is a boy's name of German origin meaning "bath-house attendant; full moon".

A German occupational surname deriving from the German word Bad, meaning "bath". Its most famous bearer in recent years has been (the notorious) RBG – former Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, making this a great feminist name or a nod to a lawyer in the family. Its simple, dynamic, er-ending sound fits right in with the likes of Hunter, Carter and Baker.

Bader also has a separate derivation from Arabic, where it means "full moon" and is also transcribed as Badr or Badar.
