Is Jalina a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Jalina has been recorded only for girls: SSA lists no boys with the name in 43 years of records (it lists a name only in years with 5 or more babies of a sex).
Girls and boys named Jalina: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Jalina, and how old are they?
An estimated 660 Americans named Jalina and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (99% of everyone recorded); the median is 18 years old and half are between 11 and 26. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 511 people named Jalina (510 women and girls, 1 man or boy). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 576 born in the U.S. The Census count is 11% 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.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. 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).
