Ran is the Norse goddess of the sea, who gathers the drowned in her net.
Ran 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 Ran reduce to 6, The Nurturer. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
