Where Iman is officially recorded

4 official registrars have recorded Iman, between 1964 and 2025, in 55 of those 62 years. Each registrar publishes for its own population on its own methodology, so the positions below are each one country's own ranking and are not comparable with one another.

What's not yet available

  • Meaning
  • Origin
  • Pronunciation
  • Nicknames and spelling variants

Absence from this list does not mean the name isn't genuinely meaningful or widely used — only that Namewise hasn't 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 4 regions, from 1964 to 2025. Highest recorded position: #220 in Norway in 2009. Source data last verified 2026-07-21.
