How many people are named Kyrell, and how old are they?
An estimated 917 Americans named Kyrell and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (99% of everyone recorded); the median is 14 years old and half are between 6 and 23. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 548 people named Kyrell (25 women and girls, 523 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 696 born in the U.S. The Census count is 21% 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.
