How many people are named Camya, and how old are they?
An estimated 655 Americans named Camya and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (99% of everyone recorded); the median is 17 years old and half are between 12 and 21. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 429 people named Camya (425 women and girls, 4 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 591 born in the U.S. The Census count is 27% 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.
