Yoko Ono (born 1933) is the Japanese-American multimedia artist, musician, and peace activist — pioneer of conceptual art alongside George Maciunas and Fluxus, and wife of John Lennon from 1969 until his murder in 1980. Her 1964 Cut Piece — in which she sat motionless on stage while audience members cut away her clothing — is among the works of feminist performance art.
Subject of the 2024 documentary Yoko.
Yoko 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 Yoko reduce to 3, The Communicator. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
