Aubreyanna in the 2020 Census
The 2020 Census recorded 280 people with the first name Aubreyanna, which placed it at #30,870 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 Aubreyanna is White at 49.3%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (21.4%) and Black (14.6%). 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 Aubreyanna 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 Aubreyanna at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

Origin
Meaning and history of Aubreyanna
The name Aubreyanna is a relatively modern variant of the French name Aubrey, which has its origins in the Old Germanic language. The name is derived from the elements "alf" meaning "elf" or "supernatural being" and "ric" meaning "ruler" or "power." Together, these elements suggest a meaning along the lines of "ruler of the elves" or "supernatural ruler."
The name Aubrey itself can be traced back to the medieval period, where it was used as a masculine name. One of the earliest recorded bearers of the name was Aubrey de Vere, an Anglo-Norman nobleman who lived in the 12th century and served as the Lord Great Chamberlain of England under King Henry II.
During the Middle Ages, the name Aubrey also appeared in various literary works, including the famous Arthurian legends. In Sir Thomas Malory's "Le Morte d'Arthur," a knight named Sir Aubrey is mentioned as a member of King Arthur's Round Table.
As the centuries passed, the name Aubrey continued to be used, albeit with varying spellings and pronunciations. In the 16th century, an English writer and poet named John Aubrey was born (1626-1697). He is best known for his work "Brief Lives," a collection of biographical sketches of notable figures from his time.
The feminine form of the name, Aubrey or Aubri, has been used throughout history as well. One notable bearer was Aubri de Montdidier, a French noblewoman who lived in the 12th century and was known for her involvement in the Second Crusade.
The variant spelling Aubreyanna appears to be a more recent development, likely influenced by the trend of creating more elaborate or feminine versions of traditional names. While not as widely documented as the original Aubrey, it carries the same essential meaning and historical significance.
In terms of other notable individuals with the name Aubreyanna or its variants, there are a few examples worth mentioning. Aubrey Beardsley (1872-1898) was an influential English illustrator and author known for his distinctive black and white drawings. Aubrey de Grey (born 1963) is a biomedical gerontologist and author who has made significant contributions to the field of anti-aging research. Aubrey Hepburn (1929-1993) was a British actress and humanitarian, best known for her roles in films such as "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Roman Holiday."

FAQ
Aubreyanna: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Aubreyanna?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 372 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Aubreyanna 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 921,383 US residents.
Is Aubreyanna a common name?
We classify Aubreyanna as "Very Rare". It ranks above 81.6% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 377 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Aubreyanna most popular?
The single biggest year for Aubreyanna was 2015, when 26 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Aubreyanna is about 17 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
How common was Aubreyanna in the 2020 Census?
The published 2020 Census first-name tables recorded 280 people with the name Aubreyanna, or 0.09 per 100,000 residents. That placed it at #30,870 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 Aubreyanna 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 Aubreyanna?
In the 2020 Census sex table, Aubreyanna appears almost entirely female. Of the 271 people counted with this name, 100.0% were female and only a very small share were male. 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 Aubreyanna?
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Aubreyanna is White at 49.3%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (21.4%) and Black (14.6%). 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 Aubreyanna most often in the Census?
White is the largest reported group for people named Aubreyanna in the 2020 Census, accounting for 49.3% (138 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 Aubreyanna in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Aubreyanna a female name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Aubreyanna in the SSA data are female. 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 Aubreyanna still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Aubreyanna 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 Aubreyanna 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.
