📜 Tiffany Through the Generations
Tiffany had one of the most concentrated rises and falls in US naming history. It spent 26 years in the top 10 and hit its peak in 1988 with 18,435 babies born in a single year. That boom explains everything about the age picture today. A massive 88% of living Tiffanys are aged 30 to 60, with only 12% under 30 and barely 1,673 over 60. The average age of 40 sits almost exactly at the heart of that 1980s and 1990s wave. The gap between all-time births of 339,751 and living people of 329,329 is surprisingly small, which tells you most Tiffanys were born recently enough that very few have passed away. The name is now firmly in decline, so the under-30 crowd of just 42,324 is a fraction of what each decade used to produce. It's a name that belongs to a specific generation in a way few names do.
