Haskell — #8977 US boys' name

What the Data Says About Haskell

The Social Security Administration has registered 3,700 babies named Haskell between 1883 and 2024, spanning 142 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Haskell currently holds the #8977 rank among boys for 2024. The name reached its historical peak in 1919, when 104 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Haskell performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 862 births during that ten-year window. Across the 15 decades of recorded activity, Haskell shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Oklahoma, which accounts for 557 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Texas and South Carolina. In total, SSA state-level files list Haskell in 12 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Haskell 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 3,700 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
