How many people are named Kavion, and how old are they?
1,390 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 99% of the 1,405 Americans ever recorded as Kavion. The median Kavion alive today is 15 years old; half are between 8 and 19.
The 2020 Census counted 878 people named Kavion (19 women and girls, 859 men and boys).

Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.

An estimate, not a count. SSA’s files count people born in the United States who received a Social Security number, so anyone born abroad is not in them; before 1937 most people got a number as adults, and their survival is counted from that age.
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).
