All around the world, Ébène (Eben , Ébène ) is a common principally masculine, but scarcely feminine forename. The forename Ébène is characteristic of Namibia, where it is quite a common gender-neutral name, Ghana, where it is quite a common boy's name, and Lebanon, where it is quite a rare masculine name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in Indonesia, Ghana, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Much less frequently, Ébène is the last name as well as the forename.
