English Names

A collection of names used throughout the English-speaking world. While individual names may be more popular or traditional in certain Anglophone countries, naming trends and usage tend to overlap considerably across the English-speaking world. Please note that the inclusion of a name on this list does not necessarily mean that it is of English origin. Many names have been borrowed from other languages and cultures and subsequently became established within English-speaking communities. Click on each name to learn more about its origin, meaning, and usage. This is not an exhaustive list and will be continually updated as new names are added.
