Velmar — unisex name

What the Data Says About Velmar

The Social Security Administration has registered 54 babies named Velmar between 1908 and 1932, spanning 25 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Velmar currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 1932. The name reached its historical peak in 1919, when 8 babies received it in a single year. Velmar is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 22 additional births since 1916.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Velmar performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 36 births during that ten-year window. Across the 4 decades of recorded activity, Velmar shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Velmar 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 54 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
