Brand — boys' name

What the Data Says About Brand

The Social Security Administration has registered 289 babies named Brand between 1948 and 2022, spanning 75 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Brand currently falls outside the top 1,000 boys' names for 2022. The name reached its historical peak in 1953, when 11 babies received it in a single year. Brand is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 18 additional births since 1974.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Brand performed strongest in the 1980s, accumulating 52 births during that ten-year window. Across the 9 decades of recorded activity, Brand shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Brand 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 289 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
