The stadium was originally called Al-Karkh Stadium and was renamed Al-Rasheed Stadium when Al-Rasheed SC took over the ground in 1984. It returned to the name Al-Karkh Stadium in 1990.

In June 2020, following the death of former Al-Rasheed player Ahmed Radhi, the stadium was renamed Al-Saher Ahmed Radhi Stadium.[1]
