How many people are named Ilyanna, and how old are they?
An estimated 475 Americans named Ilyanna and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (99% of everyone recorded); the median is 11 years old and half are between 6 and 16. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 269 people named Ilyanna (268 women and girls, 1 man or boy). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 338 born in the U.S. The Census count is 20% below that prediction.
