📜 Lorre Through the Generations

Lorre tells a fascinating generational story that's concentrated in a narrow window of American naming history. Of the 421 total births ever recorded with this name in the US, the peak came in 1961 with 35 babies given the name. That mid-century burst didn't last long, and today there are zero people named Lorre under the age of 30. The age breakdown paints a vivid picture: 331 of the 362 living bearers are over 60, while just 90 fall between 30 and 60. That means a striking 79% of all people named Lorre belong to the older generation, making it a name you're far more likely to hear at a retirement gathering than a kindergarten classroom. Globally, it's ranked #250,708 with about 1,025 bearers worldwide. The trend has been stable rather than declining sharply, but it hasn't shown signs of a revival either. It sits comfortably between classic and modern, a mid-century gem that captured a brief moment in time.
