Thanos Becomes Popular Baby Name
Parents are always finding Disney names to name their pets and even kids after. When we think of some of those names, we maybe tend to think of Anna or Merida, but how about Thanos?
Thanos is currently one of the most popular Disney names out there right now. According to data from the Social Security Administration, it’s number 9 on the list.

The name Thanos has risen almost 3000 spots since Avengers: Infinity War was released 4 years ago. Jim Starlin, creator of the iconic Marvel villain, was shocked to see such popularity with his name.
“I mean, all these strange esoteric characters that they would never touch because back when they started it was strictly Batmans, Spider-Man, you know the heroes,” Starlin said. “And the fact that Thanos has gotten as big as he has, quite frankly, surprised the hell out of me because I always thought he was just too weird and esoteric and apparently wrong. That’s why I don’t make movies.”
Thanos was the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first true “Big Bad,” and will soon be followed up by Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror.
“It comes down to the cast and with Jonathan Majors, who I think took over the Hall H stage, you know, in the three minutes he was up there,” Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige told us. “It’s amazing, and I said to him there’s nobody’s shoulders I’d rather be putting the multiverse saga on than his. It’s really impressive what Jonathan Majors is able to do and all the different incarnations, variants, if you will, of Kang that we will see him do. It’s really pretty cool.”
