Our complete imported U.S. data covers 1880–2025. The complete SSA annual files were supplied in the NameForUs data v1 release and verified against its packaged database. Counts below five are withheld; missing records are not zero.
Ranks are calculated within year and SSA sex category, descending by count and alphabetically for ties. Historical coverage before 1937 is incomplete. Charts show absolute counts, not percentages.
