Ranks and shares: boys’ names in each year’s SSA file; share of all boys SSA recorded that year.

Is Edmon a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Edmon has been recorded only for boys: SSA lists no girls with the name in 99 years of records (it lists a name only in years with 5 or more babies of a sex).

Girls and boys named Edmon: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.

How many people are named Edmon, and how old are they?

An estimated 402 Americans named Edmon and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (34% of everyone recorded); the median is 56 years old and half are between 37 and 74. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.

The 2020 Census counted 691 people named Edmon (1 woman or girl, 690 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 473 born in the U.S. The Census count is 46% above that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census records the name people give, which for many is the short form Edmon 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).
