About the name Bashar
Bashar belongs to the Muslim & Arabic 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, Bashar first appears in Social Security records in 1973. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #3434 in 2000, and in 2024 7 babies received the name — 370 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
