Baby names that fell the fastest in the U.S. data, 1881 to today (relative decrease)

fallen leaves

We looked at the top baby name rises last month, so this month let’s look at the opposite: the top drops. That is, the baby names that decreased the most in usage, percentage-wise, from one year to the next in the Social Security Administration’s data.

Here’s the format: girl names are on the left, boy names are on the right, and the percentages represent single-year slides in usage. (For example, from 1880 to 1881, usage of the girl name Clementine dropped 68% and usage of the boy name Neil dropped 76%.)

The SSA data isn’t perfect, but it does become more accurate in the late 1930s, because “many people born before 1937 never applied for a Social Security card, so their names are not included in our data” (SSA). Now, back to the list…

  • Dropped-then-rose: Clementine, Malissa, Diana, Alvie, Pierce, Judge, Rosendo

Where did the baby name Quint come from in 1959?

The character Deputy Quint from the TV series Tombstone Territory (1957-1960).
Deputy Quint from “Tombstone Territory

The name Quint debuted in the U.S. baby name data in 1959 and saw peak usage in 1964:

  • 1965: 56 baby boys named Quint [rank: 992nd]
  • 1964: 87 baby boys named Quint [rank: 810th]
  • 1963: 51 baby boys named Quint
  • 1962: 13 baby boys named Quint
  • 1961: 5 baby boys named Quint
  • 1960: unlisted
  • 1959: 7 baby boys named Quint [debut]
  • 1958: unlisted

Where did it come from?

There are two answers, actually. And both have to do with secondary characters in TV Westerns.

The first fictional Quint was on Tombstone Territory (1957-1960). Deputy Quint, played by actor Quentin Charles Sondergaard, appeared in about dozen episodes of the show during the third season. This is what boosted the name onto the charts in the first place.

The second fictional Quint was on Gunsmoke (1955-1975). Quint Asper — a half-white, half-Comanche blacksmith played by a young Burt Reynolds — appeared on 50 episodes of the show from 1962 to 1965. This is when the name saw its highest-ever usage.

Please note that I did include names in the gray area between one syllable and two syllables. The deciding factor on these particular names (such as Charles, Miles, and Noel) will be your own interpretation/accent, so be sure to test the names out loud before making any final decisions.

Many of these names also happen to be unisex, so they appear on the one-syllable girl names list as well.
