About North
North's image and gender status was irrevocably changed when Kim Kardashian and Kanye West announced it as the name of their newborn daughter. But why not? West is firmly established as a name, Easton is coming up strong, and North has a nice solid sound as well -- certainly as appropriate for either gender. South, though, not so much.
Pronounced NORTH.
As of October 2026, North ranked #9922 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #8972 in 2019.
Editor's take: The name North is a girl's name.
