Dacoda over time
How old is the name Dacoda?
Dacoda first appears in Social Security Administration records in 1990, which makes it about 35 years old as a recorded American name. It has been recorded in 28 of the 36 years since.
How many people are named Dacoda?
The Social Security Administration has recorded 661 American births named Dacoda 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 647 are estimated to be alive today.
How many babies were named Dacoda in 2025?
Dacoda 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 Dacoda getting more or less popular?
Dacoda is out of use. It averaged 6 births a year a decade ago and has not been recorded in the last five years.
Measured on recorded births. American births overall have fallen since 2007, so most established names lose births over any recent decade — a name can shed births and still hold its rank. Compare the rank above, which is measured against the other names of the same year.
Is Dacoda a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Across the whole record Dacoda is mostly a boy’s name — 17.7% of the 661 Americans given it were girls and 82.3% were boys. In births since 2016 it is 0% girls and 100% 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 Dacoda?
Roughly 647 Americans named Dacoda are alive today — 98% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 26 years old, and half are between 21 and 30. That is a narrow band: Dacoda 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.
