About Monty
Diminutive of Montague or Montgomery that has long been used as a standalone for boys – and for a few girls too, especially during the middle years of the 20th century. It has largely fallen out of favor, though it is frequently used as a standalone boys'name across the pond. With boyish nicknames for girls - a la Charie and Stevie - on trend, Monty has the chance to come back.
Pronounced MON-tee.
As of October 2026, Monty ranked #16825 in US births in 2023 SSA, peaked at #2528 in 1940.
Editor's take: The name Monty is a girl's name meaning "pointed hill".
