Census

Juluis in the 2020 Census

The 2020 Census recorded 179 people with the first name Juluis, which placed it at #41,133 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.

Demographics

Ancestry and ethnicity for Juluis

In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Juluis is Black at 52.0%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (19.0%) and White (16.8%). 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 Juluis 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 Juluis at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

Origin

Meaning and history of Juluis

The name Juluis has its origins in the ancient Roman civilization, derived from the Latin family name "Julius" or "Iulius." This name has a rich historical significance and has been borne by many influential figures throughout the ages.

The name is believed to have originated from the word "ioulos," which means "downy-bearded" or "youthful" in ancient Latin. It was first used as a cognomen (a Roman family name) by the Patrician Julian family, one of the most prominent and influential families in ancient Rome.

One of the earliest and most renowned individuals to bear this name was Gaius Julius Caesar, the famous Roman military leader, statesman, and author who lived from 100 BC to 44 BC. He played a pivotal role in the Roman Republic's transformation into the Roman Empire and is widely regarded as one of the greatest military leaders in history.

Another notable figure in history who bore this name was Julius Agricola, a Roman governor and military commander who lived from 40 AD to 93 AD. He is best known for his campaigns in Britain, during which he conquered large parts of the island and established Roman rule.

In the realm of literature, Julius Firmicus Maternus, a Roman writer and astrologer, lived in the 4th century AD. He is renowned for his work "Mathesis," an influential treatise on astrology.

The name also appears in religious texts, such as the Bible, where Julius was a centurion mentioned in the Book of Acts. He was responsible for the safe transport of the Apostle Paul from Caesarea to Rome.

In the Middle Ages, Julius Nepos was a Roman emperor who ruled the Western Roman Empire from 474 AD to 480 AD, during the tumultuous period of the fall of the Western Roman Empire.

Throughout history, numerous other notable individuals have borne the name Juluis, including Julius Severus, a Roman emperor who reigned briefly in 193 AD, and Julius Pollux, a Greek scholar and grammarian who lived in the 2nd century AD and is known for his work "Onomasticon," a lexicon of Greek words and phrases.

FAQ

Juluis: questions and answers

How many people in the U.S. are named Juluis?

Name Census puts the figure at roughly 265 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Juluis 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 1,293,413 US residents.

Is Juluis a common name?

We classify Juluis as "Very Rare". It ranks above 77.8% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 893 babies have been registered with this name.

When was Juluis most popular?

The single biggest year for Juluis was 1923, when 33 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Juluis is about 59 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.

How common was Juluis in the 2020 Census?

The published 2020 Census first-name tables recorded 179 people with the name Juluis, or 0.06 per 100,000 residents. That placed it at #41,133 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 Juluis 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 Juluis?

In the 2020 Census sex table, Juluis appears almost entirely male. Of the 174 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 Juluis?

In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Juluis is Black at 52.0%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (19.0%) and White (16.8%). 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 Juluis most often in the Census?

Black is the largest reported group for people named Juluis in the 2020 Census, accounting for 52.0% (93 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 Juluis in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.

Is Juluis a male name?

Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Juluis 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 Juluis still being used today?

Yes. The SSA still recorded Juluis 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 Juluis 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.
