All around the world, فيله (Welle 
, فيله 
) is quite a rare epicene forename. The forename فيله is characteristic of Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Senegal, where it is a rare feminine name, Cameroon, and Ethiopia, where it is a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is the most numerous in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Ethiopia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Cameroon. More prevalently, فيله is the last name as well as the forename.
