Linux is a modern masculine name derived from the well-known computer operating system of the same name. The operating system, created by Linus Torvalds in 1991, was named as a blend of 'Linus' and 'Unix.' As a personal name, Linux began appearing in birth records primarily after the operating system gained mainstream recognition in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It appeals to parents with connections to technology, programming, or who value the open-source philosophy the system represents. While still quite rare as a given name, Linux has gradually increased in usage among tech-enthusiast parents. The name carries connotations of innovation, freedom, and technological proficiency.
