Recorded 1914–2016 · United States
Derry was most popular in 1957, when 55 American babies were given the name — ranking #2,345 that year. It was not recorded in 2025. Across 1880–2025 the Social Security Administration has recorded 1,678 people named Derry.
Across the whole record Derry is mostly a boy’s name — 8.2% of the 1,678 Americans given it were girls and 91.8% 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.
