Unknown Origin and Meaning

The name Unknown is a girl's name meaning "unfamiliar, not yet known".

A word name, that like Infantmale, Baby, or Babygirl, likely appears in the charts because it is used as a placeholder, when parents need to register their baby but have yet to choose their given name. Given to nearly 80 babies in the US in a recent year, different cultural naming traditions or simple indecision are hopefully the reasons behind this figure.
