Betti — girls' name

What the Data Says About Betti

The Social Security Administration has registered 849 babies named Betti between 1916 and 1995, spanning 80 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Betti currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1995. The name reached its historical peak in 1946, when 37 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Betti performed strongest in the 1940s, accumulating 246 births during that ten-year window. Across the 9 decades of recorded activity, Betti shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in California, which accounts for 15 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by New York and Washington. In total, SSA state-level files list Betti in 3 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Betti 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 849 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
