Question

Is the name george outdated?

Answer 1

George is a very old and traditional name, which was very common a few centuries ago. George is an adaptation of the Greek name Georgios, which is derived from the Greek word georgos, "farmer" or "earth-worker". George was the 14th most popular name for boys in the UK in 2006, but is falling in popularity in the US and was ranked 153rd that same year.

The name "George" is a traditional royal name for many British rulers. There have been six British kings called George, and Saint George is the patron saint of England, knights, armorers and archers. Prince Charles will possibly be the 7th King George to ascend the throne.
