What the Data Says About Aneta

The Social Security Administration has registered 845 babies named Aneta between 1902 and 2020, spanning 119 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Aneta currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2020. The name reached its historical peak in 1948, when 18 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Aneta performed strongest in the 1940s, accumulating 114 births during that ten-year window. Across the 13 decades of recorded activity, Aneta shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Illinois, which accounts for 77 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Oklahoma. In total, SSA state-level files list Aneta in 2 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Aneta 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 845 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
