Ha — unisex name

What the Data Says About Ha

The Social Security Administration has registered 422 babies named Ha between 1976 and 2013, spanning 38 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Ha currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2013. The name reached its historical peak in 1984, when 29 babies received it in a single year. Ha is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 73 additional births since 1976.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Ha performed strongest in the 1980s, accumulating 212 births during that ten-year window. Across the 5 decades of recorded activity, Ha shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in California, which accounts for 135 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Louisiana and Texas. In total, SSA state-level files list Ha in 3 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Ha 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 422 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
