Dare, of Latin origin, signifies 'speak'. It's a strong and distinctive name choice that carries a certain boldness and uniqueness.
The name Dare experienced fluctuating popularity over the course of a century, with periods of no recorded births and others where it was chosen five times or more in a single year. The highest peaks were reached in 1994 with six births and twice in 1927 and 1952, both with six births each. However, there are also gaps where the name was not given to any child between 1924 and 1926, and again from 1930 to 1951, indicating a decline in its usage during those periods. Overall, Dare was chosen for 63 newborns over these decades.
