Eulah — girls' name

What the Data Says About Eulah

The Social Security Administration has registered 1,871 babies named Eulah between 1881 and 1963, spanning 83 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Eulah performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 498 births during that ten-year window. Across the 9 decades of recorded activity, Eulah shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Kentucky, which accounts for 123 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Missouri and West Virginia. In total, SSA state-level files list Eulah in 10 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Eulah 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 1,871 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
