Innocence — girls' name

What the Data Says About Innocence

The Social Security Administration has registered 116 babies named Innocence between 2001 and 2022, spanning 22 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Innocence currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2022. The name reached its historical peak in 2007, when 15 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Innocence performed strongest in the 2010s, accumulating 52 births during that ten-year window. Across the 3 decades of recorded activity, Innocence shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Innocence 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 116 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
