How many people are named Alexy, and how old are they?

An estimated 668 Americans named Alexy and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 24 years old and half are between 18 and 30. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.

The 2020 Census counted 850 people named Alexy (418 women and girls, 432 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 649 born in the U.S. The Census count is 31% above that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census records the name people give, which for many is the short form Alexy rather than the name on their birth record, and it counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out.

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).
