Origin
Meaning and history of Keaundre
The given name Keaundre is a modern invention, likely originating in the United States within the past few decades. It does not have a direct derivation from any known language or cultural tradition.
The name appears to be a unique combination of sounds and spelling patterns that were chosen for their aesthetic or personal meaning, rather than being rooted in a specific linguistic or historical context. Its pronunciation and spelling suggest a blending of various stylistic influences, including potential nods to African-American naming traditions and contemporary naming trends.
Due to its recent origins, there are no known ancient texts, religious scriptures, or historical records that directly reference the name Keaundre. Similarly, there are no widely recognized historical figures or notable individuals from earlier eras who bore this particular name.
While the name itself may not have a rich historical lineage, it is possible that it has been given to individuals in modern times who have achieved recognition or significance within their respective fields or communities. However, without access to comprehensive data on the distribution and usage of this name, it is difficult to conclusively identify any famous or notable bearers of the name Keaundre throughout history.
The absence of a well-documented historical background or widespread cultural significance does not diminish the personal meaning or significance that the name Keaundre may hold for those who have chosen it or been given it. In contemporary society, the creation and adoption of unique and unconventional names are often expressions of individuality, creativity, and cultural blending, reflecting the diverse and evolving naming traditions of modern times.

FAQ
Keaundre: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Keaundre?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 120 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Keaundre 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 2,856,286 US residents.
Is Keaundre a common name?
We classify Keaundre as "Very Rare". It ranks above 67.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 122 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Keaundre most popular?
The single biggest year for Keaundre was 2002, when 12 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Keaundre is about 21 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
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 Keaundre in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Keaundre a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Keaundre 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 Keaundre still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Keaundre 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 Keaundre 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.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
