Discover how your name has trended across 140+ years of US birth records — peak year, total count, decade-by-decade breakdown, and more.
Powered by official SSA data · 1880–2023
All data comes from the Social Security Administration (SSA) baby names dataset, which covers every name given to at least 5 babies in the United States from 1880 to the most recent year available.
We divide the total US births in your name's peak year by the number of babies given that name that year. For example, if 80,000 babies were named Emma in a year when 4 million babies were born, that's roughly 1 in every 50 babies.
The SSA only includes names given to at least 5 babies in a given year to protect privacy. Very rare or unique names may not appear, and the dataset covers US births only.
The trend compares average annual births for your name in the most recent 5 years vs the previous 10 years. Rising means more babies are getting this name recently; Falling means fewer; Stable means roughly the same.
