Recorded 1915–1964 · United States
Pershing was most popular in 1918, when 295 American babies were given the name — ranking #715 that year. It was not recorded in 2025. Across 1880–2025 the Social Security Administration has recorded 599 people named Pershing.
Across the whole record Pershing is a boy’s name — 0.0% of the 599 Americans given it were girls and 100.0% 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.
