About Stryker
Stryker adds the trendy letter Y to Striker to join the new gang of boys' names that have two syllables, end in -er, spring from words, and have a macho meaning and image.
Stryker is given to around 50 boys each year, steamrolling Striker which is typically used less than 10 times per year in the U.S. Many parents are interested in these names that feel aggressive and powerful, but we wouldn't recommend them.
Pronounced STRY-kur.
As of October 2026, Stryker ranked #2597 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1549 in 2014.
