Is Queena a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Queena has been recorded only for girls: SSA lists no boys with the name in 54 years of records (it lists a name only in years with 5 or more babies of a sex).
Girls and boys named Queena: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Queena, and how old are they?
An estimated 685 Americans named Queena and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (97% of everyone recorded); the median is 24 years old and half are between 11 and 43. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 545 people named Queena (545 women and girls, 0 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 653 born in the U.S. The Census count is 17% 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.
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 Queena is more common than its national share predicts
Relative to its national share, Queena is most over-represented in California: since 1921 it was given 1.6 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 Queena with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
