📜 Rane Through the Generations

Looking at the generational breakdown, Rane is unmistakably a modern name that didn't gain any traction until relatively recently. There aren't any bearers over the age of 60, which tells us it's a product of late 20th-century naming trends. The bulk of the 338 total US births cluster in the 1990s and 2000s, with the name hitting its high point in 1992 when 20 babies received it. That's still a tiny number, but it was enough to mark the peak. Today, about 190 of the 329 living bearers are under 30, making up a solid 56% of all people named Rane. The remaining 148 fall between ages 30 and 60. It's a name that arrived quickly and has been slowly declining since its modest peak. With 7,796 bearers worldwide and a global rank of 72,338, Rane finds its largest international presence in India. In the US, it remains a genuinely rare pick that parents don't seem to be choosing as often anymore.
