About Wilkin
Probably too odd and elven for mainstream success, but there are certainly circumstances in which this would make a nice boys' name. It might be a nice way to honor a William from your family tree, for instance.
With its S ending, Wilkins might make a more stylish choice. But make no mistake: Most boys with Wilkin or Wilkins as a full name will go by Will most of the time.
Pronounced WIL-kin.
As of October 2026, Wilkin ranked #14074 in US births in 2023 SSA, peaked at #4299 in 1922.
