Dior for girls#1126 US
The meaning of Dior is uncertain but it may be "golden", from the French doré
Dior for boys#1590 US
Dior was among the fastest-rising names for both girls and boys in the US in the early 2020s, but was the fastest-falling name for boys in the 2023 statistics.
Its connection to French luxury designer and brand Christian Dior makes it an aspirational fashion name, a group that for several years was hot and now is less so. The name Chanel also fell in 2023.
The etymology of Dior is uncertain, but it is speculated to derive from the French d'or, meaning "of gold."
Pronounced dee-OR.
As of October 2026, Dior ranked #1126 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #499 in 2020.
