Capri is the name of the island in the Bay of Naples, a place name of uncertain origin that is usually explained from the Latin capra, "goat", or the Greek kapros, "wild boar". As a girls' name it belongs with other glamorous travel names like Siena and Vienna, and it also recalls the capri pants made famous in the 1950s. In the United States Capri jumped into the top 1000 in 2020 and reaches number 547 among girls' names in 2025, its best rank so far.
