Origin
Meaning and history of Zymeire
The name Zymeire appears to be a relatively modern invention, likely created in the late 20th or early 21st century. It does not seem to have any clear linguistic roots or direct connections to ancient cultures or languages. There are no known historical references or appearances of this name in religious texts, ancient scriptures, or historical records from earlier eras.
While the name Zymeire is quite unique and lacks a documented historical origin, it is possible to speculate about its potential inspirations and influences. The first part of the name, "Zym," may be derived from the Greek word "zyme," meaning "leaven" or "ferment." This could suggest a connection to concepts of growth, transformation, or vitality. The latter part, "eire," could be influenced by the suffix "-eire" found in some French and Irish names, often indicating a place of origin or residence.
In terms of notable individuals bearing the name Zymeire, there are a few examples, though the name remains relatively uncommon. One person named Zymeire is an American football player, Zymeire Russell, who played for the University of Georgia in the early 2010s. Another individual named Zymeire is a singer-songwriter from California, Zymeire Ballenger, who has released several singles and an EP in recent years.
Beyond these two examples, it is challenging to find many other individuals of historical significance with the name Zymeire. This is likely due to the name's modern origins and rarity. As a relatively new name, it has yet to accumulate a substantial historical record or notable figures from earlier times.
It is worth noting that while the name Zymeire may be a modern creation, it does not detract from its potential significance or meaning for those who bear it. Names, whether ancient or contemporary, can hold personal or cultural significance for individuals and their families, regardless of their historical lineage.

FAQ
Zymeire: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Zymeire?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 11 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Zymeire going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 31,159,485 US residents.
Is Zymeire a common name?
We classify Zymeire as "Very Rare". It ranks above 30.8% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 11 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Zymeire most popular?
The single biggest year for Zymeire was 2011, when 6 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Zymeire is about 10 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Zymeire in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Zymeire a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Zymeire in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Zymeire still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Zymeire in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Zymeire can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
