Uriel peaked in 2008, when 796 babies got the name.
At least 21,393 babies have been given the name since 1913. 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.

Where Uriel is most common
Compared with all babies born in each state since 1910, Uriel has been most common in Nevada (3.8×), Arizona (3.5×), and California (3.2×), and least common in Ohio (0.09×).
19,205 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.
