Is Ocie a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Of the 6,871 Americans recorded as Ocie, 60% are girls and 40% boys. In 2025 it went to 20 girls; SSA lists no boys with it that year (fewer than 5, or none).
Years with fewer than 20 babies given the name are left blank.

How many people are named Ocie, and how old are they?
1,520 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 22% of the 6,871 Americans ever recorded as Ocie. The median Ocie alive today is 69 years old; half are between 52 and 80.
The 2020 Census counted 1,480 people named Ocie (667 women and girls, 813 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 1,852 born in the U.S. The Census count is 20% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.

An estimate, not a count. SSA’s files count people born in the United States who received a Social Security number, so anyone born abroad is not in them; before 1937 most people got a number as adults, and their survival is counted from that age.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).
Where are babies named Ocie born?
The states with the most babies named Ocie are Alabama, Texas and Arkansas, with 56% of its births recorded by state since 1910; Alabama and Arkansas are not among the ten states with the most births.

Where Ocie is more common than its national share predicts
Relative to its national share, Ocie is most over-represented in Alabama: since 1910 it was given 5.4 times as often there as its national share each year would predict.
States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among girls’ names in the state in 2025. The file leaves out any state and year with fewer than 5 babies of the name, so small states are undercounted; each ratio compares the state’s births of Ocie with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
Names spelled alike
Of these 3 names spelled alike, given to 7,298 babies since 1880, Ocie is the most given (94% of them). In 2025 it was given to 20 of their 20 babies (100%), again the most given.
Spelled alike: names in the SSA national file with the same pattern of letters and sounds and at most two letters apart, and Wiktionary’s listed forms; births since 1880 and in 2025, and each name’s peak year, from the SSA national file, published May 8, 2026. Some are separate names, not spellings of one.
Names that rose and fell in the same decades as Ocie
Names whose births rose and fell across the same decades, measured on each decade’s share of births.
