Around the globe, Erastus (Erastus 
, Эрастус) is quite a rare primarily boy's, but scarcely female given name. The forename Erastus is characteristic of Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Namibia, where it is quite a common primarily male, but very seldom feminine name, Kenya, where it is quite a rare male name, and Tanzania, where it is a rare male name. Much less frequently, Erastus is the last name as well as the forename.
