Meaning & History

Georgian sources state that this name is of Iranian origin and comes from the same root as Nodar, which is a Georgian name that is also of Iranian origin.

But according to a Russian source, this name is a compound name that means "golden light", derived from Arabic نور (nur) meaning "light" combined with Persian زر (zar) meaning "gold".
