Emeril — boys' name

What the Data Says About Emeril

The Social Security Administration has registered 70 babies named Emeril between 1999 and 2022, spanning 24 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Emeril currently falls outside the top 1,000 boys' names for 2022. The name reached its historical peak in 1999, when 10 babies received it in a single year. Emeril is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 16 additional births since 2001.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Emeril performed strongest in the 2000s, accumulating 53 births during that ten-year window. Across the 3 decades of recorded activity, Emeril shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Emeril 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 70 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
