Aleene — girls' name

What the Data Says About Aleene

The Social Security Administration has registered 795 babies named Aleene between 1898 and 2013, spanning 116 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Aleene currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2013. The name reached its historical peak in 1917, when 48 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Aleene performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 280 births during that ten-year window. Across the 8 decades of recorded activity, Aleene shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Texas, which accounts for 39 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Kentucky and Oklahoma. In total, SSA state-level files list Aleene in 7 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Aleene in our reference dataset. These figures derive from SSA's annual national and state-level name files, which include any name appearing at least five times in a given year or state-year; names below that threshold are suppressed for privacy and therefore excluded from the totals shown here. The 795 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
