Recorded 1880–1989 · United States
Mittie was most popular in 1920, when 153 American babies were given the name — ranking #1,057 that year. It was not recorded in 2025. Across 1880–2025 the Social Security Administration has recorded 6,298 people named Mittie.
The Social Security Administration’s records begin in 1880, and Mittie is already there in that first year — so the name is older than the record and these figures cannot date it. It has been recorded in 102 of the 146 years since. It was last recorded in 1989.
The Social Security Administration has recorded 6,298 American births named Mittie 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 940 are estimated to be alive today.
Mittie 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 Mittie is a girl’s name — 100.0% of the 6,298 Americans given it were girls and 0.0% 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 940 Americans named Mittie are alive today — 15% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 77 years old, and half are between 69 and 85.
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.
