How old is the name Lemont?

How many people are named Lemont?

The Social Security Administration has recorded 682 American births named Lemont 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 569 are estimated to be alive today.

How many babies were named Lemont in 2025?

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

Across the whole record Lemont is a boy’s name — 0.0% of the 682 Americans given it were girls and 100.0% 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 Lemont?

Roughly 569 Americans named Lemont are alive today — 83% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 52 years old, and half are between 42 and 59.

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.
