About the name Vasili
Vasili belongs to the 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, Vasili first appears in Social Security records in 1976. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #6218 in 2013, and in 2024 8 babies received the name — 193 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
