How many people are named Jahaad, and how old are they?
An estimated 201 Americans named Jahaad and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 26 years old and half are between 21 and 30. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 175 people named Jahaad (3 women and girls, 172 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 203 born in the U.S. The Census count is 14% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.

Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).
