What the Data Says About Marce

The Social Security Administration has registered 169 babies named Marce between 1950 and 2005, spanning 56 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Marce currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2005. The name reached its historical peak in 1963, when 13 babies received it in a single year. Marce is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 111 additional births since 1915.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Marce performed strongest in the 1960s, accumulating 55 births during that ten-year window. Across the 5 decades of recorded activity, Marce shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Marce 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 169 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
