Fredia — girls' name

What the Data Says About Fredia

The Social Security Administration has registered 2,307 babies named Fredia between 1901 and 1990, spanning 90 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Fredia currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1990. The name reached its historical peak in 1948, when 73 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Fredia performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 567 births during that ten-year window. Across the 10 decades of recorded activity, Fredia shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Kentucky, which accounts for 143 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Tennessee and Alabama. In total, SSA state-level files list Fredia in 17 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Fredia 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 2,307 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
