What the Data Says About Christene

The Social Security Administration has registered 4,916 babies named Christene between 1888 and 2009, spanning 122 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Christene performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 876 births during that ten-year window. Across the 13 decades of recorded activity, Christene shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Texas, which accounts for 736 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Arkansas and Georgia. In total, SSA state-level files list Christene in 19 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Christene 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 4,916 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
