Toshiba — girls' name

What the Data Says About Toshiba

The Social Security Administration has registered 408 babies named Toshiba between 1974 and 1991, spanning 18 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Toshiba currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1991. The name reached its historical peak in 1974, when 58 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Toshiba performed strongest in the 1970s, accumulating 252 births during that ten-year window. Across the 3 decades of recorded activity, Toshiba shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Florida, which accounts for 21 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Georgia and Louisiana. In total, SSA state-level files list Toshiba in 8 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Toshiba 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 408 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
