Ophelia comes from the Greek ōphelos, meaning "help" or "aid." The name was apparently coined by the Italian poet Jacopo Sannazaro in his 1480 pastoral romance Arcadia.
Ophelia has been rising rapidly in the 2010s. Today it sits in the U.S.
Ophelia does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Ophelia reduce to 3, The Communicator. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
