Even in Arabic the equivalent Haddad (حداد=blacksmith) is a very common surname across most Arab countries because it's related to a long-standing occupation which is as old as humanity itself.

@SW-User Tre Cool!
Is Hadid the same thing because I see that name more than Haddad?

Hadid حديد literally means iron :)
