How many people are named Breia, and how old are they?
An estimated 402 Americans named Breia and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 29 years old and half are between 22 and 34. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 352 people named Breia (352 women and girls, 0 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 394 born in the U.S. The Census count is 11% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.
