What the Data Says About Patti

The Social Security Administration has registered 44,705 babies named Patti between 1888 and 2018, spanning 131 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Patti currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2018. The name reached its historical peak in 1958, when 3,115 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Patti performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 20,604 births during that ten-year window. Across the 14 decades of recorded activity, Patti shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in California, which accounts for 3,258 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Texas and Pennsylvania. In total, SSA state-level files list Patti in 51 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Patti 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 44,705 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
