Across the whole record Verlie is mostly a girl’s name — 92.8% of the 2,460 Americans given it were girls and 7.2% 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.
How old is someone named Verlie?
Roughly 427 Americans named Verlie are alive today — 17% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 80 years old, and half are between 73 and 87.
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.
