Decade-level aggregation shows that Leesa performed strongest in the 1960s, accumulating 1,439 births during that ten-year window. Across the 8 decades of recorded activity, Leesa shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in California, which accounts for 327 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Texas and Ohio. In total, SSA state-level files list Leesa in 31 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Leesa in our reference dataset. These figures derive from SSA's annual national and state-level name files, which include any name appearing at least five times in a given year or state-year; names below that threshold are suppressed for privacy and therefore excluded from the totals shown here. The 4,124 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
