All figures on this page are statistical estimates, not exact government headcounts. The underlying data comes from the SSA National Baby Names dataset, which records every given name assigned to 5 or more babies per year going back to 1880. Current living counts are derived by applying age-adjusted survival rates to each birth cohort. For common names the estimates are quite reliable; for rare names the margin of error is wider.
