How many people are named Jamarious, and how old are they?
An estimated 814 Americans named Jamarious and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 20 years old and half are between 16 and 28. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 533 people named Jamarious (6 women and girls, 527 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 773 born in the U.S. The Census count is 31% 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.
