Reda — unisex name

What the Data Says About Reda

The Social Security Administration has registered 1,843 babies named Reda between 1904 and 2012, spanning 109 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Reda currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2012. The name reached its historical peak in 1955, when 67 babies received it in a single year. Reda is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 358 additional births since 1993.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Reda performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 483 births during that ten-year window. Across the 12 decades of recorded activity, Reda shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Kentucky, which accounts for 123 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Pennsylvania and Tennessee. In total, SSA state-level files list Reda in 11 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Reda 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 1,843 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
