Forum is an ancient Roman public gathering place, where citizens would congregate to discuss matters of state, hear speeches from important figures, and even witness trials. The term 'forum' has evolved in modern times to denote any large open space or plaza designed for public assembly. It originates from the Latin word 'foro', meaning marketplace.
In the year 2000 alone, there were five babies named Forum. In total, there have been five children given this unique name.
