How old is the name Cleone?

Cleone first appears in Social Security Administration records in 1890, which makes it about 135 years old as a recorded American name. It has been recorded in 61 of the 136 years since. It was last recorded in 1957.

How many people are named Cleone?

The Social Security Administration has recorded 1,325 American births named Cleone between 1880 and 2025. That is recorded US births, not a world population — it counts people issued a Social Security number at birth in the United States. Of those, roughly 224 are estimated to be alive today.

How many babies were named Cleone in 2025?

Cleone was not recorded in 2025. The SSA withholds any name given to fewer than five babies in a year, so fewer than five American babies were given it.

Is Cleone a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Across the whole record Cleone is a girl’s name — 99.6% of the 1,325 Americans given it were girls and 0.4% were boys.

Counted from every US birth the Social Security Administration recorded under this name, so it reflects use rather than opinion. A name given to fewer than five babies of one sex in a year is withheld at source and is not counted.

How old is someone named Cleone?

Roughly 224 Americans named Cleone are alive today — 17% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 84 years old, and half are between 78 and 89. That is a narrow band: Cleone arrived and faded within about a decade rather than staying in steady use.

An estimate, not a count. Recorded births are carried forward through the Social Security Administration’s 2023 period life table, by age and sex. That table describes mortality in one recent year, so it credits the oldest cohorts with today’s survival rather than the harsher rates they actually lived through — the further back a name peaked, the more this will overstate how many remain. It counts people issued a Social Security number at birth, not immigrants who arrived later.
