About the name Amílcar
Amílcar belongs to the Spanish and Portuguese tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Amílcar first appears in Social Security records in 1957. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #2408 in 1991, and in 2024 22 babies received the name — 945 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
