  • 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 3 regions, from 1945 to 2024. Highest recorded position: #50 in Norway in 1978. Source data last verified 2026-07-21.
