Origin
Meaning and history of Laylarose
Laylarose is a relatively modern name that appears to be a combination of the Arabic name Layla and the English name Rose. The name Layla has its origins in Arabic and means "night" or "dark beauty." It is derived from the Arabic word "lail," which means "night." The name has been popular in Arabic-speaking cultures for centuries and has been used in various works of literature, including the famous 7th-century Arabic story "Layla and Majnun" by Nizami Ganjavi.
The name Rose, on the other hand, is derived from the Latin word "rosa," which means "rose flower." It has been a popular name in English-speaking countries for centuries and is often associated with beauty, love, and femininity. The combination of Layla and Rose, forming Laylarose, is a relatively modern creation, likely inspired by the desire to blend cultural influences and create a unique and meaningful name.
While the name Laylarose does not have a long historical tradition, it is worth noting a few notable individuals who have shared one or both of its components. Layla Zoe, an American singer and songwriter born in 1989, is known for her soulful R&B music. Layla Elwi, an Egyptian actress born in 1950, has had a prolific career in Egyptian cinema. Rose Byrne, an Australian actress born in 1979, is well-known for her roles in films such as "Bridesmaids" and the "X-Men" series.
It is important to note that the name Laylarose does not have a deep historical significance or widespread cultural usage.

FAQ
Laylarose: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Laylarose?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 98 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Laylarose 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 3,497,493 US residents.
Is Laylarose a common name?
We classify Laylarose as "Very Rare". It ranks above 64.3% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 99 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Laylarose most popular?
The single biggest year for Laylarose was 2013, when 10 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Laylarose is about 9 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 Laylarose in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Laylarose a female name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Laylarose 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 Laylarose still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Laylarose 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 Laylarose 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.
