Immanuel is the Hebrew form of Emmanuel and means "God is with us"; it is the name the prophet Isaiah gives to the promised child, which Christians read as a title of Jesus. The German philosopher Immanuel Kant is the best-known bearer of this spelling. Immanuel entered the US top 1000 in 2001, peaked at number 893 that same year, slipped out of the list in 2017 and ranks 1207 in 2025.
