The name Hanzel appears to have experienced a significant increase in popularity over the past decade or so, with a total of 260 births recorded between 1987 and 2023. While there were only six births in each of the years 1987 and 1996, and five births in several other years throughout this period, we see a substantial jump to nine births in 2007 and beyond. The most recent years show a particularly high number of Hanzel births, with 29 in 2023 alone. This indicates that the name may have become more fashionable or desirable in recent times.
