Insights

Today, Genesis is a popular, familiar name (popularity 89/100).

It is less common today than at its historical peak.

The name Genesis originates from the Greek word 'γένεσις' (génesis), meaning 'origin' or 'birth.' It gained prominence as the title of the first book of the Bible, which describes the creation of the world. While traditionally used in religious contexts, it has become a modern given name, particularly in English-speaking countries, reflecting themes of renewal and creation. Its adoption as a personal name surged in the late 20th century, aligning with trends favoring meaningful and spiritually significant names.
