How old is the name Xochil?

How many people are named Xochil?

The Social Security Administration has recorded 607 American births named Xochil 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 595 are estimated to be alive today.

How many babies were named Xochil in 2025?

Xochil 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 Xochil getting more or less popular?

Xochil is out of use. It averaged 9 births a year a decade ago and has not been recorded in the last five years.

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 Xochil a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Across the whole record Xochil is a girl’s name — 100.0% of the 607 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.

How old is someone named Xochil?

Roughly 595 Americans named Xochil are alive today — 98% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 28 years old, and half are between 21 and 37.

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.
