How old is the name Orland?

Orland 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 99 of the 141 years since.

How many people are named Orland?

The Social Security Administration has recorded 2,086 American births named Orland 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 520 are estimated to be alive today.

How many babies were named Orland in 2025?

Orland 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 Orland getting more or less popular?

Orland 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 Orland a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Across the whole record Orland is a boy’s name — 0.2% of the 2,086 Americans given it were girls and 99.8% 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.

How old is someone named Orland?

Roughly 520 Americans named Orland are alive today — 25% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 66 years old, and half are between 50 and 79.

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.
