Is Enoc a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Enoc has been recorded only for boys: SSA lists no girls with the name in 55 years of records (it lists a name only in years with 5 or more babies of a sex).
Girls and boys named Enoc: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Enoc, and how old are they?
1,350 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 98% of the 1,381 Americans ever recorded as Enoc. The median Enoc alive today is 15 years old; half are between 6 and 26.
The 2020 Census counted 1,566 people named Enoc (4 women and girls, 1,562 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 1,020 born in the U.S. The Census count is 1.5 times that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census records the name people give, which for many is the short form Enoc rather than the name on their birth record, and it counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out.
Alive today, by age
Alive today, by generation
| Generation | Born | Alive |
|---|---|---|
| Baby Boomers | 1946-1964 | 3 |
| Generation X | 1965-1980 | 74 |

| Generation Z | 1997-2012 | 435 |
| Generation Alpha | 2013-2025 | 632 |
An estimate, not a count. SSA’s files count people born in the United States who received a Social Security number, so anyone born abroad is not in them; before 1937 most people got a number as adults, and their survival is counted from that age.
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).

Where Enoc is more common than its national share predicts
Relative to its national share, Enoc is most over-represented in California: since 1955 it was given 1.6 times as often there as its national share each year would predict.
States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among boys’ names in the state in 2025. The file leaves out any state and year with fewer than 5 babies of the name, so small states are undercounted; each ratio compares the state’s births of Enoc with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
Names spelled alike
Of these 3 names spelled alike, given to 1,542 babies since 1880, Enoc is the most given (90% of them). In 2025 it was given to 60 of their 78 babies (77%), again the most given.
Spelled alike: names in the SSA national file with the same pattern of letters and sounds and at most two letters apart, and Wiktionary’s listed forms; births since 1880 and in 2025, and each name’s peak year, from the SSA national file, published May 8, 2026. Some are separate names, not spellings of one.
