Sabre — unisex name

What the Data Says About Sabre

The Social Security Administration has registered 514 babies named Sabre between 1960 and 2023, spanning 64 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Sabre currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2023. The name reached its historical peak in 1994, when 28 babies received it in a single year. Sabre is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 73 additional births since 1994.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Sabre performed strongest in the 1990s, accumulating 189 births during that ten-year window. Across the 7 decades of recorded activity, Sabre shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Sabre 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 514 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
