Meaning & origin

Cirilla is a modern invented name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 2016. Since then, its usage has steadily climbed, reaching a peak rank of 2,607 in 2025, when approximately 1 in 24,353 newborn girls received the name. The name's trajectory has been rising since 2016, reflecting growing interest in distinctive, literary-sounding names. The highest rates of use are in states like Wisconsin, Tennessee, and Florida, suggesting a scattered but enthusiastic adoption. As a recent coinage, Cirilla lacks historical depth but appeals to parents seeking a feminine and fanciful alternative to more established names.

Cirilla appears to be a modern coinage, perhaps inspired by the literary figure Cirilla from the Witcher series or a creative elaboration of names like Cira or Circe. It entered U.S. records in 2016 and has seen modest use since.
