The story in the numbers
878 girls have been named Le in the United States since 1916, according to Social Security records. The busiest single year was 1982, with 35 births.
The name has all but left use: none recorded in 2024, against 35 at the peak.
Half of everyone given the name was born by 1975, and the 1980s alone account for 23%.
Le is used for both sexes: 47% of its bearers are boys (775), most of them born around 1990.

What this page does not tell you. The Social Security data records how many babies were given a name, not what the name means or where it comes from — so neither do we. Counts cover people with a Social Security number; names given to fewer than five babies in a year are withheld. More on the data.
