Utopia, derived from the Greek word 'ou-topos', meaning 'no place' or 'nowhere', is an uncommon yet intriguing given name of Latin origin. It was coined by Sir Thomas More in his 1516 book 'Utopia', a work that explored ideas about ideal societies and societal reforms. The name Utopia has since been associated with notions of perfection, harmony, and the pursuit of an idyllic lifestyle.
The number of babies named Utopia peaked in 1978 and 1982 with 8 births each year. The name's popularity appears to have declined after 1985.
