How many people are named Terryon, and how old are they?
An estimated 284 Americans named Terryon and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 20 years old and half are between 13 and 24. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 227 people named Terryon (19 women and girls, 208 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 264 born in the U.S. The Census count is 14% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.
