Selah (סֶלָה) is a Hebrew word that appears 71 times in the Book of Psalms — its exact meaning is debated.
Selah is rising in the U.S., particularly in evangelical Christian families. Today it sits in the U.S. top 400 and is climbing fast.
Selah 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 Selah reduce to 9, The Giver. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
