Is Tyliah a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Girls and boys named Tyliah: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Tyliah, and how old are they?
An estimated 446 Americans named Tyliah and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (99% of everyone recorded); the median is 16 years old and half are between 10 and 23. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 311 people named Tyliah (307 women and girls, 4 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 378 born in the U.S. The Census count is 18% 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.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).
