Wallis — boys' name

What the Data Says About Wallis

The Social Security Administration has registered 625 babies named Wallis between 1911 and 1977, spanning 67 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a boy's name, Wallis currently falls outside the top 1,000 boys' names for 1977. The name reached its historical peak in 1940, when 26 babies received it in a single year. Wallis is classified as unisex in SSA records: the opposite-sex variant accounts for 565 additional births since 1936.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Wallis performed strongest in the 1920s, accumulating 142 births during that ten-year window. Across the 7 decades of recorded activity, Wallis shows a clear decline from its mid-century high.

No etymological entry is currently available for Wallis 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 625 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
