What the Data Says About Tonda

The Social Security Administration has registered 2,426 babies named Tonda between 1942 and 1989, spanning 48 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Tonda currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1989. The name reached its historical peak in 1964, when 135 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Tonda performed strongest in the 1960s, accumulating 1,085 births during that ten-year window. Across the 5 decades of recorded activity, Tonda shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Ohio, which accounts for 310 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by North Carolina and Indiana. In total, SSA state-level files list Tonda in 19 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Tonda 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 2,426 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
