First appearance
1880

In the first year the SSA published name data, Florida was already there! It came in at #547, and was given to 10 baby girls.


Quietest stretch: 1967–1968, when fewer than 5 girls a year got the name.

Where Florida is popular in 2025

No state had 5 or more girls named Florida in 2025, so the SSA doesn't publish it for any state.

All figures count published births only (names given to at least 5 girls in a year). Registrations before 1937 are incomplete, so early shares and totals run low.
