How many people are named Gabrial, and how old are they?
1,840 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 97% of the 1,891 Americans ever recorded as Gabrial. The median Gabrial alive today is 24 years old; half are between 18 and 32.
The 2020 Census counted 2,538 people named Gabrial (316 women and girls, 2,222 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 1,833 born in the U.S. The Census count is 38% above that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out, and it records the name people give, which SSA may have recorded under another spelling or as part of a compound name.

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).
Names spelled alike
Of these 8 names spelled alike, given to 406,655 babies since 1880, Gabrial is the second most given (<1% of them). In 2025 none of their 6,579 babies recorded by SSA was a Gabrial (SSA lists a name only with 5 or more babies of one sex).

Some are separate names, not spellings of one.
