Almond — boys' name

What the Data Says About Almond

The Social Security Administration has registered 617 babies named Almond between 1882 and 1979, spanning 98 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Almond currently falls outside the top 1,000 boys' names for 1979. The name reached its historical peak in 1919, when 26 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Almond performed strongest in the 1910s, accumulating 160 births during that ten-year window. Across the 10 decades of recorded activity, Almond shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Georgia, which accounts for 6 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by North Carolina. In total, SSA state-level files list Almond in 2 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Almond 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 617 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
