Pride — boys' name

What the Data Says About Pride

The Social Security Administration has registered 89 babies named Pride between 1953 and 2020, spanning 68 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Pride currently falls outside the top 1,000 boys' names for 2020. The name reached its historical peak in 1970, when 8 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Pride performed strongest in the 1970s, accumulating 26 births during that ten-year window. Across the 7 decades of recorded activity, Pride shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Pride 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 89 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
