Modest's History, Meaning and Global Presence

Modest is a name of Latin origin, meaning 'humble,' and historically associated with the virtues of modesty and propriety. It’s predominantly found in Slavic countries, particularly Poland and Croatia, where it has a long-standing tradition. In the United States, it’s exceptionally rare, rarely appearing in popular name lists. The name carries a vintage and dignified tone, suggesting a reserved and thoughtful personality. Its usage peaked in earlier centuries and has since declined, remaining a culturally significant but uncommon choice. It is almost exclusively given to males, reinforcing its strong masculine identity.
