Nathán

Nathán is a masculine given name used in multiple languages as a variant of Nathan. It is found in contexts where diacritics indicate pronunciation, and it is closely related to the Hebrew name Netan, from a root meaning “to give.” The common interpretation of Nathan/Nathán is “gift of God” or “God has given.”

In linguistic and religious usage, Nathán reflects the broader family of names derived from the Hebrew Netan/Natan. The name appears in Christian and Jewish communities and is linked to the biblical figure Nathan, the prophet who advised King David. As a result, Nathán carries historical and cultural associations tied to biblical tradition and the broader Nathan/Natan name group.

Variations and related forms include Nathan, Natan, Natán, Nathanael, and Nathaniel. The spelling Nathán with an acute accent is more typical in languages that use diacritics to mark syllable stress and pronunciation, whereas Nathan or Natan are common in English and other contexts without diacritics. The name remains in ongoing use across many regions and cultures, often selected for its classical resonance and religious associations.
