About Pierre
One of the most familiar — if not stereotypical — Gallic names. Pierre was a Top 5 name in France from the 19th century through 1940 and is now on a steady decline in its native land. In the US, Pierre was most common in the 1980s but it has never cracked the Top 300.
Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr welcomed a son named Pierre in 2024, which may boost its profile. She chose the name in honor of her grandfather, Peter.
Pierre is also given to girls.
Pronounced pee-AIR.
As of October 2026, Pierre ranked #11053 for girls in US births in 1990 and #1253 for boys in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #5942 for girls in 1985 and #389 for boys in 1986.
