Some names that were common about a century ago are becoming rarer as couples choose monikers<\/a> for their babies.<\/p>\n

A new study from Spokeo, a California-based people search website, has determined which baby names<\/a> are “dying out” in the United States.<\/p>\n

Researchers at Spokeo reportedly analyzed over 378 million baby name records from the Social Security Administration (SSA) and narrowed down which names have dropped the most in terms of popularity from 1919, when the SSA started keeping name records, to 2021, when the SSA last updated its popular name record.<\/p>\n

THESE BABY NAMES ARE ‘AT RISK’ OF GOING ‘EXTINCT’ IN 2023: REPORT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

To determine which names are dying out in America, Spokeo looked at which names fell off the SSA\u2019s top 100 list, the number of name registries<\/a> from 1919 compared to 2021 and the overall percentage change.<\/p>\n

Aside from Spokeo\u2019s findings, Fox News Digital consulted BabyNames.com, an online source for baby name meanings,<\/a> for the meaning of each name that\u2019s reportedly dying out.<\/p>\n

Nine of the 10 names Spokeo identified as “most at risk of extinction” are female names, such as Mildred, Gladys and Ethel.<\/p>\n

Each name that appears on Spokeo\u2019s list wasn’t given to a single baby in 2021, according to SSA records.<\/p>\n

Half of the names on the list fell off the SSA\u2019s top 100 list in the 1940s while one name fell off in 1955 and two names respectively fell off in the 1930s and 1960s.<\/p>\n
