How many people are named Rayvon, and how old are they?
1,970 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 93% of the 2,120 Americans ever recorded as Rayvon. The median Rayvon alive today is 26 years old; half are between 16 and 35.
The 2020 Census counted 1,421 people named Rayvon (99 women and girls, 1,322 men and boys).

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).

States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among boys’ 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 Rayvon with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
