Recorded 1901–1981 · United States
Loyce was most popular in 1933, when 130 American babies were given the name — ranking #1,029 that year. It was not recorded in 2025. Across 1880–2025 the Social Security Administration has recorded 4,278 people named Loyce.
Loyce first appears in Social Security Administration records in 1901, which makes it about 124 years old as a recorded American name. It has been recorded in 77 of the 125 years since. It was last recorded in 1981.
The Social Security Administration has recorded 4,278 American births named Loyce 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 1,377 are estimated to be alive today.
Loyce 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.
Across the whole record Loyce is mostly a girl’s name — 81.9% of the 4,278 Americans given it were girls and 18.1% 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.
Roughly 1,377 Americans named Loyce are alive today — 32% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 77 years old, and half are between 69 and 84.
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.
How much more common the name is in each state than across the country as a whole.
