Uganda — unisex name

What the Data Says About Uganda

The Social Security Administration has registered 46 babies named Uganda between 1972 and 1979, spanning 8 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Uganda currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1979. The name reached its historical peak in 1973, when 12 babies received it in a single year. Uganda is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 12 additional births since 1975.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Uganda performed strongest in the 1970s, accumulating 46 births during that ten-year window.

No etymological entry is currently available for Uganda 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 46 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
