About Webb
This pleasant single-syllable surname might be especially appealing to someone involved with the internet (and who isn't?)--even if some others might see it as a drawback.
Webb is one of those names that was well used at the end of the nineteenth century--it was Number 567 in 1880--and then completely vanished. One possible namesake is the Honky Tonk singer Webb Pierce.
Webb is much more visible as a surname, some notable bearers being actors Jack, Clifton, Chloe and Veronica, jazz musician Chick, and British reformer Beatrice.
Pronounced WEB.
As of October 2026, Webb ranked #5839 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #567 in 1880.
