From Wikipedia
In Pythagorean numerology, every letter has a value from 1 to 9. Adding the letters of Matias yields these three numbers — a playful read on the name's character.
Matias grew 305% across the decade and reached its best figures in 2024, at 2,263 births and rank 158. Listed as Finnish in origin, which is accurate but incomplete — the name is at least as common in Spanish-speaking countries, usually written Matías with an accent the American data drops. Recorded from 1904, 23,249 births total. Every listed bearer holds it as a middle name: Kimi Räikkönen, born 1979, is Kimi-Matias; the footballers Gonçalo Ramos and Ezequiel Schelotto likewise. Matias is rising alongside Mateo and Matteo, three forms of the same underlying name occupying three separate lines in this dataset, which is the clearest possible demonstration of how spelling fragments the record.
