In all the world, ウェルズ (Wells 
, Welles , ウェルズ 
) is quite a rare principally male, but scarcely feminine first name. The forename ウェルズ is characteristic of Trinidad and Tobago, where it is quite a rare female name, Taiwan, where it is a rare boy's name, and Hong Kong. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in the United States, Brazil, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Predominantly, ウェルズ is the last name as well as the forename.
ウェルズ is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Wells , the character in James Joyce's Portrait of the Artist and Stephen Hero, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Wells Fargo , the musical character in the musical The Idea.
