About the name Virgil
Virgil belongs to the English & American 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, Virgil first appears in Social Security records in 1880. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #93 in 1907, and in 2024 114 babies received the name — 71,881 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
