The name Porsche, derived from the German word for 'little pony,' is synonymous with speed and luxury in the automotive world. It was first used by Ferdinand Porsche, an engineer born on January 3rd, 1875, who founded the company that bears his name. The Porsche brand, now over a century old, has consistently produced high-performance sports cars, sedans, and SUVs, with iconic models like the 911 and Cayenne capturing hearts worldwide.
The name Porsche has seen a significant rise and fall in popularity over the years, with peaks as high as 182 births in 1987 and valleys as low as 5 births in 2013 and 2017. The name was particularly popular between 1986 and 1994, with an average of around 100 births per year during this period. However, since the late 1990s, there has been a steady decline in the number of babies named Porsche each year.
