How many people are named Jamare, and how old are they?
An estimated 467 Americans named Jamare and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 20 years old and half are between 15 and 26. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 359 people named Jamare (19 women and girls, 340 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 455 born in the U.S. The Census count is 21% 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).
