About the Name Artemis

Artemis has seen a notable decline in recent years, dropping 99 places in five years. It was most popular in 2022 at #762 — parents choosing it today are making a deliberately counter-trend decision. The name has been a consistent presence in UK records since 1996.

Artemis is distinctive enough that your child will likely be the only one in both their class and their school — standing out on every register.

In the US it ranks even higher at #856, where it enjoys a particularly strong following.
