What the Data Says About Gillie

The Social Security Administration has registered 322 babies named Gillie between 1881 and 1952, spanning 72 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Gillie currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1952. The name reached its historical peak in 1896, when 16 babies received it in a single year. Gillie is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 191 additional births since 1894.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Gillie performed strongest in the 1890s, accumulating 80 births during that ten-year window. Across the 8 decades of recorded activity, Gillie shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Gillie 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 322 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
