How many people are named Kohlton, and how old are they?
An estimated 401 Americans named Kohlton and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 19 years old and half are between 14 and 25. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 347 people named Kohlton (0 women and girls, 347 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 392 born in the U.S. The Census count is 11% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.
