What the Data Says About Leoma

The Social Security Administration has registered 1,196 babies named Leoma between 1892 and 1967, spanning 76 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Leoma performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 352 births during that ten-year window. Across the 8 decades of recorded activity, Leoma shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Texas, which accounts for 39 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Oklahoma and West Virginia. In total, SSA state-level files list Leoma in 9 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Leoma 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 1,196 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
