Australia — girls' name

What the Data Says About Australia

The Social Security Administration has registered 339 babies named Australia between 1900 and 2020, spanning 121 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Australia currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2020. The name reached its historical peak in 1917, when 12 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Australia performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 72 births during that ten-year window. Across the 12 decades of recorded activity, Australia shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Australia 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 339 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
