<upd_detl>Possibly remove statistics? [news2,nf40]
Both forms are common names, news results all seem to be proper names.

"manliness" seems like an English invention here, and a somewhat anachronistic gloss in 2023.  Certainly nothing inherent in the dictionary definitions suggests "manly" beyond the idea of "firmness of character" being an "innately" manly attribute.

Never translated as "manly"/"manliness" in reverso.  I can't imagine actually translating 剛毅な as "manly" today.

Interesting overlap with 剛気；豪気, almost mergeable, but I think the split is fine (kokugos split). 

ngrams inflated because this is a common name.</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>sankoku says 文 (剛毅 only)
sankoky, daijs, nikk definitions all seem consistent
