How common is it?

about 1 in 13,000 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, Vernon is likely to keep falling in the US in 2026: about 1 in 14,000 baby boys. Likely range 1 in 12,000 to 1 in 17,000.
