A claim marked not established does not mean the name lacks a meaning or is not widely used — only that Namewise has not sourced and reviewed that content yet. Absence from a specific year or geography above does not prove zero use there either; official statistics only publish names above a minimum threshold.

Official popularity data is available for 3 regions, from 2000 to 2024. Highest recorded position: #89 in Northern Ireland in 2021. Source data last verified 2026-07-22.
