Celinda — girls' name

What the Data Says About Celinda

The Social Security Administration has registered 1,080 babies named Celinda between 1938 and 2015, spanning 78 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Celinda currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2015. The name reached its historical peak in 1954, when 34 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Celinda performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 249 births during that ten-year window. Across the 9 decades of recorded activity, Celinda shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Texas, which accounts for 202 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by California and New York. In total, SSA state-level files list Celinda in 4 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Celinda 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 1,080 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
