Loida — girls' name

What the Data Says About Loida

The Social Security Administration has registered 695 babies named Loida between 1933 and 2023, spanning 91 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Loida currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2023. The name reached its historical peak in 1994, when 21 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Loida performed strongest in the 1970s, accumulating 130 births during that ten-year window. Across the 10 decades of recorded activity, Loida shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in New York, which accounts for 105 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by California and Texas. In total, SSA state-level files list Loida in 3 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Loida 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 695 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
