Araceli peaked in 2002, when 573 babies got the name.
At least 20,406 babies have been given the name since 1939. Years SSA withheld, because fewer than 5 were born, are skipped rather than drawn as zero. * 2025 is the newest year published and it undercounts: a card application is filed some time after a birth.
Araceli by decade
Among all names given to American babies, it ranked #1,069 in every decade from the 1980s to the 1990s. The largest share of babies named Araceli, 33.1%, were born between 1997 and 2012, as Generation Z.
Rank counts both sexes together, among every name SSA recorded that decade; the number under it is births. The 2020s run only to 2025. Generation years follow Pew Research Center, which has not named a generation after 2012.
Where Araceli is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Araceli has been most common in California (4.3×), Texas (3.6×), and Arizona (3.5×), and least common in Ohio (0.07×).
18,170 births recorded by state, 1910–2025. 2× means twice as common as nationally. States with fewer than 30 such births are left blank, and SSA withholds any year with fewer than 5 in a state, so small states read low.
