Jeanie peaked in 1957, when 499 babies got the name.
At least 17,148 babies have been given the name since 1882. 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.
Jeanie by decade

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 Jeanie is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Jeanie has been most common in Oklahoma (2.6×), Arkansas (2.3×), and Missouri (2×), and least common in Arizona (0.2×).
12,457 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.
