From Wikipedia
In Pythagorean numerology, every letter has a value from 1 to 9. Adding the letters of Eden yields these three numbers — a playful read on the name's character.
Both of Eden's measures hit new territory in 2024 at once, 3,115 births and #72 nationally, 46% ahead of where the name stood ten years back.
This one skipped the dataset's early decades entirely — nothing on record before 1943, more recent than most names covered so far.
Belgian footballer Eden Hazard and Israel's 2024 Eurovision entrant Eden Golan give the name real international visibility, alongside American rapper CupcakKe, born Elizabeth Harris, who performs under a stage name that has nothing to do with it.
