About Ennis
An appealing Irish placename with a unisex feel, Ennis would be a fresh alternative to Dennis and Ellis. It's little-used for boys and even rarer for girls, but since Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons used it for their son, it could be one to watch.
Ennis for girls
Irish town names are now fair game -- as are most other places with connections to Ireland -- but are much better suited to boys.
Pronounced EN-is.
As of October 2026, Ennis ranked #9157 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #586 in 1910.
