Sweden

You may be surprised to learn 73 girls have been named Sweden since the 2000s. Appearing sporadically in the US name stats over the last twenty years, the name derives from the Old Norse Svíar which may come from an even older word meaning "one's own tribe".

Pronounced SWEE-den.

As of October 2026, Sweden ranked #17234 in US births in 2020 SSA, peaked at #9861 in 2017.
