How old is the name Veryl?
Veryl first appears in Social Security Administration records in 1904, which makes it about 121 years old as a recorded American name. It has been recorded in 51 of the 122 years since. It was last recorded in 1961.
How many people are named Veryl?
The Social Security Administration has recorded 1,060 American births named Veryl 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 189 are estimated to be alive today.
How many babies were named Veryl in 2025?
Veryl 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 Veryl a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Across the whole record Veryl is a unisex name — 35.3% of the 1,060 Americans given it were girls and 64.7% were boys. It changed hands: since 1915 it has gone mainly to boys, having gone mainly to girls before that.
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 Veryl?
Roughly 189 Americans named Veryl are alive today — 18% of everyone ever recorded with the name. The median is 79 years old, and half are between 72 and 85.
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.
