📜 Rolene Through the Generations

Rolene tells a very specific generational story. With just 354 total births ever recorded in the US, it's one of those names that bloomed briefly in the mid-20th century and then quietly faded. The peak came in 1947 with 19 births, a year that fits neatly into the post-war baby boom when parents were experimenting with soft, feminine-sounding combinations. Today, the average bearer of this name is around 84 years old, and 100% of recorded individuals fall into the over-60 category. That means there aren't any young Rolenes growing up in the US right now, zero under 30 and zero between 30 and 60. Globally, Rolene ranks #171,852, with about 1,946 living bearers worldwide. It's most commonly found outside the US in South Africa, where it likely gained traction through Afrikaans-speaking communities. The trend has been stable for decades, but stable at essentially zero new births. Rolene sits in a unique space between classic and modern, a mid-century gem that hasn't yet found its revival.
