Asian is an uncommon feminine name that emerged in the late 20th century. While identical in spelling to the word describing people or items from Asia, as a given name it may have developed independently or been chosen specifically for its geographical association. Some parents might select this name to honor Asian heritage or create a connection to the culturally rich continent. The name has a pleasant phonetic quality when pronounced as 'AY-zhun' or 'AY-see-an.' However, its usage remains extremely rare, likely due to potential confusion with the geographical adjective. For families with meaningful connections to Asian cultures or ancestry, the name might serve as a distinctive identifier carrying personal significance, though it may require occasional clarification in social settings.

The name Asian peaked for girls at #11641 in 1991. Asian is occasionally used for boys in 1997.
