How old is the name Taylar?

Taylar first appears in Social Security Administration records in 1984, which makes it about 41 years old as a recorded American name. It has been recorded in 41 of the 42 years since.

How many people are named Taylar?

The Social Security Administration has recorded 2,534 American births named Taylar 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 2,501 are estimated to be alive today.

How many babies were named Taylar in 2025?

Taylar 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 Taylar getting more or less popular?

Taylar is falling. Across 2021–2025 it averaged 7 births a year, against 41 a year across 2011–2015 — a change of -84% over the decade.

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 Taylar a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Across the whole record Taylar is a girl’s name — 98.9% of the 2,534 Americans given it were girls and 1.1% 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 Taylar?

Roughly 2,501 Americans named Taylar are alive today — 99% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 26 years old, and half are between 19 and 31. That is a narrow band: Taylar arrived and faded within about a decade rather than staying in steady use.

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.
