Kristi peaked in 1971, when 3,279 babies got the name.
At least 76,622 babies have been given the name since 1940. 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.
Kristi by decade
Among all names given to American babies, its best decade was the 1970s, when it ranked #205. The largest share of babies named Kristi, 54.8%, were born between 1965 and 1980, Generation X's birth years.
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 Kristi is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Kristi has been most common in South Dakota (3.9×), North Dakota (3.8×), and Nebraska (2.1×), and least common in Delaware (0.23×).
74,215 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.
