Germany

Germany doesn't seem to have the same possibilities as a first name as other countries and continents do. It's unlikely to become another Asia or Africa, India or Ireland. But there was an early football player, credited with inventing the position of linebacker, who was known by the name Germany – Germany Schulz. In his case, Germany was a nickname for Adolph.

Pronounced GUR-muh-nee.

As of October 2026, Germany ranked #12889 in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #3515 in 1986.
