What the Data Says About Rox

The Social Security Administration has registered 330 babies named Rox between 1946 and 1980, spanning 35 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Rox performed strongest in the 1950s, accumulating 208 births during that ten-year window. Across the 5 decades of recorded activity, Rox shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Ohio, which accounts for 12 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Illinois and Michigan. In total, SSA state-level files list Rox in 3 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Rox 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 330 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
