Along the lines of Rémi's first suggestion, then another possible candidate is failIfNull(x).

+1 Yes, this sounds better to me than throwIfNull(x).

The purpose of this method, if I understand right, is to pull out from behind the potential failing to a well defined place in the stacktrace, so more specific it could be named failHereIfNull(x), but I more like the short form. In 2nd place I like checkForNull(x).

The nonNull(x) is ambiguous, and could be misunderstood as transform-to-a-non-null-value.
