Names that Peaked in 1996

Justice, one of the rare virtue names for boys, entered the popularity ranks in 1992, and remained in the charts until the 2020s. While it has fallen out of favor in more recent years, it remains a fresh but solid feeling option.

Suggestive of fairness, equality, and wisdom, Justice appeals as a secular virtue choice and as a word option that sounds as name-y as Justin or Justus. Actor Steven Seagal was ahead of the curve when he used it back in 1976.
 Another plus: Justice is one of the truest gender neutral names out there, given to nearly equal numbers of girls and boys in the US.
 With the Justus spelling, it was the name of several saints and noted scholars and scientists.

Justice

Tristian can be considered a compound name, combining Tristan and Christian, however, it may also be used simply as a spelling variation of the former. The name could therefore have several different meanings: "noise, tumult" from its Celtic origins, "sorrow" from its French roots, or, as compound name, "loud follower of Christ", "sorrow of the anointed one", or similar. 
 
Tristian entered the US Top 1000 back in the mid '90s, peaked in 1996 at #591, but fell out of favor in 2019. It's counterparts Tristan and Christian remain well-used, but have also seen some decline.
