Is Tyriek a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Girls and boys named Tyriek: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Tyriek, and how old are they?
An estimated 690 Americans named Tyriek and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (97% of everyone recorded); the median is 28 years old and half are between 23 and 31. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 538 people named Tyriek (0 women and girls, 538 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 676 born in the U.S. The Census count is 20% 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).

Where Tyriek is more common than its national share predicts
Relative to its national share, Tyriek is most over-represented in New York: since 1980 it was given 3.0 times as often there as its national share each year would predict.
States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among boys’ names in the state in 2025. The file leaves out any state and year with fewer than 5 babies of the name, so small states are undercounted; each ratio compares the state’s births of Tyriek with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
