Irean — girls' name

What the Data Says About Irean

The Social Security Administration has registered 485 babies named Irean between 1890 and 1956, spanning 67 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Irean currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1956. The name reached its historical peak in 1918, when 20 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Irean performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 133 births during that ten-year window. Across the 7 decades of recorded activity, Irean shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Alabama, which accounts for 10 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Arkansas and Louisiana. In total, SSA state-level files list Irean in 4 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Irean 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 485 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
