Supreme is a masculine English word name that embodies concepts of highest authority, power, and excellence. As a given name, it reflects aspirational qualities parents might wish for their child—to be outstanding, superior, or at the pinnacle of achievement. While uncommon as a first name throughout most of naming history, Supreme began appearing more frequently in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, particularly in American culture.

Though still rare, it appeals to parents seeking a powerful, distinctive name with clear positive connotations.
