About Aphrodite
The name of the Greek goddess of love has rarely descended to mortal use, though the Roman equivalent Venus, thanks to tennis star Williams, now seems completely possible. But with the new fashion for goddess names, we may see more little Aphrodites in the playground with Jupiter and Juno. Nineteen baby girls received the name in the US last year.
Aphrodite was celebrated by Sappho, the greatest female poet of ancient Greece, in her Ode to Aphrodite.
Pronounced af-ruh-DY-tee.
As of October 2026, Aphrodite ranked #6870 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #2175 in 1923.
