Meaning & background
(DAY-kur): trickier than it looks. Many English speakers will guess wrong at first, so this is one for the pronunciation-forgiving. It enters U.S. records in American naming data in 2019. It has been picking up quiet momentum lately, though it stays below the top 1,000. Roughly 82 people have been given the name to date — a true rarity.
