What the Data Says About Meco

The Social Security Administration has registered 43 babies named Meco between 1972 and 1982, spanning 11 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Meco currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1982. The name reached its historical peak in 1972, when 10 babies received it in a single year. Meco is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 43 additional births since 1974.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Meco performed strongest in the 1970s, accumulating 37 births during that ten-year window. Across the 2 decades of recorded activity, Meco shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Meco 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 43 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
