Census
Abdinasir in the 2020 Census
The 2020 Census recorded 538 people with the first name Abdinasir, which placed it at #19,583 in the published first-name tables. This is a snapshot of people who already had the name at the time of the Census.
The SSA sections elsewhere on this page answer a different question: how often parents gave the name to babies over time. The "people living today" figure on this page is different again: it is a current estimate built from SSA birth records and age-based survival rates, so the two numbers are not expected to match exactly.

In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Abdinasir is Black at 98.0%. The next largest groups are White (0.6%) and American Indian/Alaska Native (0.6%). These figures describe the people who had the name in 2020, not any inherent property of the name itself.
The bar chart below shows how people with the first name Abdinasir described their own race and ethnicity on the 2020 Census form. The Census Bureau groups responses into six broad categories: White, Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, Asian and Pacific Islander, American Indian and Alaska Native, and Two or More Races. When a category has too few respondents for a given name, the Bureau suppresses the figure to protect individual privacy, which is why some names show fewer than six slices.
Percentages are shown so the breakdown is easy to read across every published category. Because the 2020 Census first-name file also includes raw headcounts for each group, Name Census can show those alongside the percentages in the legend and hover tooltip.
Keep in mind that these are self-reported numbers. A first name does not determine a person's race or ethnicity, and the distribution you see here reflects the specific population who happened to carry the name Abdinasir at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

Origin
Meaning and history of Abdinasir
The name Abdinasir has its roots in the Arabic language and culture. It is a combination of two words, "Abd" meaning "servant" and "Nasir" meaning "helper" or "victor." The name can be translated to mean "servant of the helper" or "servant of the victor."
The origins of the name can be traced back to the 7th century CE, during the early years of Islam. It is believed that the name was first used by Arab Muslims who wanted to express their devotion and servitude to God, who is often referred to as "Al-Nasir" or "The Helper" in Islamic teachings.
Historically, the name Abdinasir has been associated with several prominent figures in the Islamic world. One of the earliest recorded instances of the name is Abdinasir al-Qushayri, a renowned Sufi scholar and theologian who lived in the 10th century CE. He is known for his influential work, "Al-Risalah al-Qushayriyah," which is considered a seminal text in Sufism.
Another notable figure with the name Abdinasir is Abdinasir al-Tusi, a Persian polymath who lived in the 13th century CE. He made significant contributions to various fields, including mathematics, astronomy, and philosophy. His works on trigonometry and astronomy were widely studied and influential during his time.
In the 14th century CE, Abdinasir al-Bitruji was a prominent Arab astronomer and mathematician. He is best known for his work on planetary theory and for his critique of the Ptolemaic model of the universe.
During the medieval period, the name Abdinasir was also borne by several rulers and military leaders. One such figure was Abdinasir Muhammad, a Mamluk Sultan of Egypt who ruled from 1293 to 1294 CE. He is remembered for his successful military campaigns against the Crusaders and for his efforts to strengthen the Mamluk Sultanate.
In more recent times, Abdinasir Shirazi was an Iranian poet and scholar who lived in the 19th century CE. He is celebrated for his mastery of the Persian language and his contributions to Persian literature, particularly his collection of poems titled "Divan-e-Shirazi."
These are just a few examples of notable individuals throughout history who have borne the name Abdinasir. The name's enduring presence across different eras and cultures reflects its deep-rooted significance in the Islamic tradition and its association with scholarly, religious, and leadership roles.

FAQ
Abdinasir: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Abdinasir?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 213 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Abdinasir going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 1,609,175 US residents.
Is Abdinasir a common name?
We classify Abdinasir as "Very Rare". It ranks above 75% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 215 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Abdinasir most popular?
The single biggest year for Abdinasir was 2011, when 16 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Abdinasir is about 14 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
How common was Abdinasir in the 2020 Census?
The published 2020 Census first-name tables recorded 538 people with the name Abdinasir, or 0.18 per 100,000 residents. That placed it at #19,583 in the national Census ranking for first names.
Why is the Census count different from the living estimate?
Because they measure different things. The Census figure is a count of people who had the name Abdinasir in 2020. The living estimate aims to answer a current question instead: how many people with the name are alive today, based on SSA birth records and age-based survival rates. Since one number is a 2020 snapshot and the other is a present-day estimate, they are not expected to be identical.
What does the Census say about the gender split for Abdinasir?
In the 2020 Census sex table, Abdinasir appears almost entirely male. Of the 532 people counted with this name, 99.4% were male and only a very small share were female. The Census view is a snapshot of people living with the name in 2020, while the SSA section above tracks births across time.
What does the Census say about the background of people named Abdinasir?
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Abdinasir is Black at 98.0%. The next largest groups are White (0.6%) and American Indian/Alaska Native (0.6%). These figures describe the people who had the name in 2020, not any inherent property of the name itself. The percentages in the chart above come from self-reported race and Hispanic-origin responses in the 2020 Census.
Which group reports the name Abdinasir most often in the Census?
Black is the largest reported group for people named Abdinasir in the 2020 Census, accounting for 98.0% (527 people in the published table).
Why can the Census sex total and race total differ slightly?
The Census Bureau published separate 2020 tables for sex and for race/Hispanic origin, and the released figures can differ slightly because of privacy protection in the public files. That is why this page treats the gender section and the race/origin section as two related snapshots instead of forcing them into one identical total.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only includes names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files have no Census demographic snapshot. When that happens, the SSA trend, gender history, and state sections still appear, but the 2020 Census demographic sections are omitted.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Abdinasir in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Abdinasir a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Abdinasir in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Abdinasir still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Abdinasir in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Abdinasir can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
