Lexi peaked in 2014, when 1,334 babies got the name.
At least 28,120 babies have been given the name since 1948. 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.
Lexi by decade
Among all names given to American babies, its best decade was the 2010s, when it ranked #589. The largest share of babies named Lexi, 52%, 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 Lexi is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Lexi has been most common in Utah (3.1×), Nevada (2.6×), and Idaho (2.5×), and least common in New York (0.44×).
26,602 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.
