How many people are named Abbigale, and how old are they?
2,160 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 99% of the 2,188 Americans ever recorded as Abbigale. The median Abbigale alive today is 21 years old; half are between 16 and 26.
The 2020 Census counted 1,799 people named Abbigale (1,795 women and girls, 4 men and boys).

Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.
Alive today, by age
Alive today, by generation
| Generation | Born | Alive |
|---|---|---|
| Millennials | 1981-1996 | 252 |

| Generation Alpha | 2013-2025 | 298 |
An estimate, not a count. SSA’s files count people born in the United States who received a Social Security number, so anyone born abroad is not in them; before 1937 most people got a number as adults, and their survival is counted from that age.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).
