Virgle is an exceedingly rare given name in the United States, first recorded in 1886. It saw its peak usage in 1905, during the first decade of the 20th century, but it has not appeared in the Social Security Administration's top 1,000 names in recent years. The name is most likely an American elaboration or variant of Virgil, the name of the famous Roman poet. Its trajectory has been stable but minimal, with no recorded resurgence.
