What the Data Says About Diann

The Social Security Administration has registered 12,252 babies named Diann between 1924 and 2014, spanning 91 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Diann performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 4,627 births during that ten-year window. Across the 10 decades of recorded activity, Diann shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Texas, which accounts for 775 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Ohio and Pennsylvania. In total, SSA state-level files list Diann in 41 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Diann 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 12,252 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
