The tide so far

about 1 in 67,000 baby girls in the published US list for 2025.

In a group of 1,000 children born that year, you would expect to meet fewer than 1. How we work this out.

Where	Sex	Latest year	Share	Verdict
US	Girls	2025	about 1 in 67,000	rare
England & Wales	Girls	2025	about 1 in 8,500	uncommon
Scotland	Girls	2025	about 1 in 1,500	uncommon
Northern Ireland	Girls	2025	about 1 in 260	common
Ireland	Girls	2025	about 1 in 160	very common

On its recent trend, Caoimhe is likely to keep falling in the US in 2026: about 1 in 92,000 baby girls. Likely range 1 in 35,000 to 1 in 240,000.
