The tide so far

  • Peaked in the US in 1903 at #734.
  • Rising over the last five years.
  • First recorded in the US in 1887.
  • A comeback: it faded for decades and is rising again.

How common is it?

about 1 in 53,000 baby boys 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.

Next year

On its recent trend, Leeroy is likely to keep falling in the US in 2026: about 1 in 61,000 baby boys. Likely range 1 in 44,000 to 1 in 85,000.
