In all the world, Judah (יהודה , Judah , 朱达 , along with others...) is quite a rare largely boy's, but uncommonly feminine forename. The forename Judah is characteristic of Barbados, where it is quite a rare masculine name, Israel, where it is quite a rare epicene name, and Ghana, where it is a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in the United States, Nigeria, and Israel. Very seldom, Judah is the last name as well as the forename.
