Like an updated form of Trudy and Prue and with the virtuous feel of Grace, Faith, and Hope, True was given to around 200 girls in 2024 (and about 225 boys). 
 
Forest Whitaker was well ahead of the trends when he named his daughter True in the 90s, but it was Khloe Kardashian's use of the name in 2018 that really gave it a boost.
