What the Data Says About Tamaris

The Social Security Administration has registered 32 babies named Tamaris between 1980 and 2001, spanning 22 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Tamaris currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2001. The name reached its historical peak in 1999, when 7 babies received it in a single year. Tamaris is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 26 additional births since 1982.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Tamaris performed strongest in the 1990s, accumulating 17 births during that ten-year window. Across the 3 decades of recorded activity, Tamaris shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Tamaris 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 32 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
