About Jericho
A biblical place name with trumpeting verve and strength.
Jericho for boys#886 US
Though rarely heard as a first name, Jericho has appeared in the titles of films, TV series, songs, bands, comics, and video games (Clive Barker's Jericho). It's perhaps these references that helped it enter the Top 1000 for the first time in 2013 -- as one of the year's fastest-rising names.
Jericho for girls#6008 US
The scope of biblical names has expanded to include sacred place-names, and this makes a plausible possibility, though it does have a masculine feel.
Pronounced JER-ih-ko.
As of October 2026, Jericho ranked #886 in US births in 2025 SSA, Nameberry popularity #982.
