Sayre — boys' name

What the Data Says About Sayre

The Social Security Administration has registered 99 babies named Sayre between 1986 and 2021, spanning 36 consecutive years of U.S. birth records.

Sayre is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 93 additional births since 1988.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Sayre performed strongest in the 2000s, accumulating 36 births during that ten-year window. Across the 5 decades of recorded activity, Sayre shows notable generational variation in parental adoption.

No etymological entry is currently available for Sayre 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 99 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
