What the Data Says About Martine

The Social Security Administration has registered 2,697 babies named Martine between 1894 and 2023, spanning 130 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Martine is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 313 additional births since 1929.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Martine performed strongest in the 1980s, accumulating 684 births during that ten-year window. Across the 14 decades of recorded activity, Martine shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in New York, which accounts for 552 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by California and Florida. In total, SSA state-level files list Martine in 18 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Martine 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 2,697 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
