Is Gregoria a boy’s or a girl’s name?

How many people are named Gregoria, and how old are they?
An estimated 832 Americans named Gregoria and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (37% of everyone recorded); the median is 59 years old and half are between 43 and 76. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.

SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 968 born in the U.S. The Census count is 6.2 times 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.
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.

Where Gregoria is more common than its national share predicts
Relative to its national share, Gregoria is most over-represented in Texas: since 1910 it was given 9.7 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 girls’ 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 Gregoria with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
