Solei is of Latin origin, derived from the word 'sol', meaning sun. It's a unisex name but often used more frequently for girls. The name conveys warmth, brightness, and positivity, much like the celestial body it's named after.
The name Solei has seen a steady increase in popularity over the years, with a significant spike in recent times. Between 1996 and 2016, there were consistently around 20 births per year, with a peak of 36 births in 2012. However, since 2017, the number of births has risen sharply, reaching 90 in 2023 - more than double the previous high. This suggests that the name Solei is now gaining considerable traction as a popular choice for newborns.
