It is believed that around 1000 years ago a man named Nanda or Nandoo, who was a milkan from nearby village Katara, populated this village and the village was named after him. Alternately it is believed that during the British Raj, this town couldn't be captured, so people called it "Na Dabi", which means "not captured"; later it became Nadbai.
