How many people are named Kashi, and how old are they?
An estimated 99 Americans named Kashi and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026, too few to state an age range. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 263 people named Kashi (139 women and girls, 124 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 31 born in the U.S. The Census count is 8.5 times that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census records the name people give, which for many is the short form Kashi rather than the name on their birth record, and it counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out.
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).
Names spelled alike
Of these 8 names spelled alike, given to 5,054 babies since 1880, Kashi is the eighth most given (2.0% of them). In 2025 it was given to 22 of their 64 babies (34%), the second most given that year.
Spelled alike: names in the SSA national file with the same pattern of letters and sounds and at most two letters apart, and Wiktionary’s listed forms; births since 1880 and in 2025, and each name’s peak year, from the SSA national file, published May 8, 2026. Some are separate names, not spellings of one.
