How many people are named Kimmie, and how old are they?

1,250 alive in 2026, estimated

That is 89% of the 1,409 Americans ever recorded as Kimmie. The median Kimmie alive today is 59 years old; half are between 47 and 65.

The 2020 Census counted 1,528 people named Kimmie (1,406 women and girls, 122 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 1,261 born in the U.S. The Census count is 21% above that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out, and it records the name people give, which SSA may have recorded under another spelling or as part of a compound name.

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).
