How old the living Moras are

Born with the name each year, and how many of them are alive today, 1880 to 2025 0 6 12 18 24 1880 1900 1920 1940 1960 1980 2000 2020

born that year still alive today

Of the 945 babies given the name since 1881, about 620 are alive — 65 in every hundred. The dotted line is the median: half were born before 2006 and half after.

An estimate, not a count. SSA births aged forward through SSA cohort life tables, which know nothing about who left the country or arrived in it — so for a name that mostly came to America rather than being born in it, this is a floor rather than a figure. Where you fall among living Americans.

Listed in 6 of Spain's 52 provinces. In the other 46 it is either held by fewer than 5 people – the point below which the source withholds a name – or it fell past the 5,000 names the source will print for one province. Neither means nobody there is called it. The rate is the source's own, not a share worked out here.

Source: US Social Security Administration, national and state baby-name files, 1880–2025. Counts include only births registered with the SSA, and names with fewer than five births in a year are not published. The living estimate applies SSA cohort life tables to those births; it counts people born in the United States, so it misses anyone who arrived later and anyone who has left.
