About Glorious
Model Jessica Hart brought this word name into the spotlight in 2022, when she chose it for her newborn son — brother to Baby-Rae. Glorious has historically only been used as a girl name, but it works equally well on boys.
Glorious for girls
Despite fitting in with the modern word name trend, Glorious has been in use since 1925, when it first appeared on the charts for girls. At peak usage, it was given to 15 baby girls in 1948, although we expect this could rise now that model Jessica Hart used it for her son.
Pronounced GLOR-us.
As of October 2026, Glorious ranked #12577 in US births in 2023 SSA, peaked at #2639 in 1948.
