Hau — boys' name

What the Data Says About Hau

The Social Security Administration has registered 109 babies named Hau between 1983 and 2018, spanning 36 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Hau currently falls outside the top 1,000 boys' names for 2018. The name reached its historical peak in 2013, when 12 babies received it in a single year. Hau is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 34 additional births since 2011.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Hau performed strongest in the 2010s, accumulating 42 births during that ten-year window. Across the 3 decades of recorded activity, Hau shows a stable profile with only moderate drift from its peak decade.

No etymological entry is currently available for Hau 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 109 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
