How many people are named Kasaundra, and how old are they?
An estimated 440 Americans named Kasaundra and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (97% of everyone recorded); the median is 36 years old and half are between 31 and 43. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 390 people named Kasaundra (386 women and girls, 4 men and boys).
