How many people are named Dayvion, and how old are they?
An estimated 802 Americans named Dayvion and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (99% of everyone recorded); the median is 16 years old and half are between 11 and 21. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 510 people named Dayvion (12 women and girls, 498 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 690 born in the U.S. The Census count is 26% 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.

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).
