How many people are named Keyara, and how old are they?
1,770 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 99% of the 1,789 Americans ever recorded as Keyara. The median Keyara alive today is 23 years old; half are between 17 and 27.
The 2020 Census counted 1,331 people named Keyara (1,331 women and girls, 0 men and boys).

Alive today, by age
Alive today, by generation
| Generation | Born | Alive |
|---|---|---|
| Millennials | 1981-1996 | 348 |

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).
