All around the world, Buchanan (Buchanan 
, ביוקנן 
, Бьюкенен) is a rare largely male, but seldom feminine given name. The first name Buchanan is characteristic of South Africa, where it is a very rare masculine name, the United States, where it is a very rare primarily boy's, but scarcely feminine name, and the United Kingdom, where it is a very rare gender-neutral name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in the United States, China, and South Africa. Predominantly, Buchanan is the last name as well as the forename.
