Verlie is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 178 additional births since 1913.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Verlie performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 585 births during that ten-year window. Across the 10 decades of recorded activity, Verlie shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in North Carolina, which accounts for 134 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Louisiana and Kentucky. In total, SSA state-level files list Verlie in 14 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Verlie 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 2,282 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
