Is Daily a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Of the 344 Americans recorded as Daily, 79% are girls and 21% boys. In 2025 it went to 18 girls; SSA lists no boys with it that year (fewer than 5, or none).
Years with fewer than 20 babies given the name are left blank.
Girls and boys named Daily: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Daily, and how old are they?
An estimated 278 Americans named Daily and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (81% of everyone recorded); the median is 11 years old and half are between 5 and 19. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 649 people named Daily (572 women and girls, 77 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 193 born in the U.S. The Census count is 3.4 times that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census records the name people give, which for many is the short form Daily rather than the name on their birth record, and it counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).
Names spelled alike
Of these 8 names spelled alike, given to 14,130 babies since 1880, Daily is the eighth most given (2.4% of them). In 2025 it was given to 18 of their 307 babies (5.9%), the fourth most given that year.
Spelled alike: names in the SSA national file with the same pattern of letters and sounds and at most two letters apart, and Wiktionary’s listed forms; births since 1880 and in 2025, and each name’s peak year, from the SSA national file, published May 8, 2026. Some are separate names, not spellings of one.
