How old is the name Evelena?

Evelena first appears in Social Security Administration records in 1885, which makes it about 140 years old as a recorded American name. It has been recorded in 95 of the 141 years since.

How many people are named Evelena?

The Social Security Administration has recorded 1,376 American births named Evelena 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 452 are estimated to be alive today.

How many babies were named Evelena in 2025?

Evelena 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 Evelena getting more or less popular?

Evelena is new. It was not recorded at all a decade ago and averaged 6 births a year across 2021–2025.

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 Evelena a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Across the whole record Evelena is a girl’s name — 100.0% of the 1,376 Americans given it were girls and 0.0% were boys. In births since 2016 it is 100% girls and 0% 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 Evelena?

Roughly 452 Americans named Evelena are alive today — 33% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 72 years old, and half are between 52 and 82. That is a wide band, the mark of a name in steady use across generations rather than a passing fashion.

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.
