What the Data Says About Der

The Social Security Administration has registered 190 babies named Der between 1981 and 1999, spanning 19 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Der currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1999. The name reached its historical peak in 1993, when 18 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Der performed strongest in the 1990s, accumulating 124 births during that ten-year window. Across the 2 decades of recorded activity, Der shows a stable profile with only moderate drift from its peak decade. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in California, which accounts for 67 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Minnesota. In total, SSA state-level files list Der in 2 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Der 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 190 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
