Eylan sits in the rare tail. Its best year on record was 2025, with 29 boys. Today it is given to few enough children that it does not enter the ranked charts at all.

Rank is a position, a count is a headcount, and they move independently — a name can hold its rank while the number of babies behind it falls. Source: U.S. Social Security Administration.

counting every spelling

The SSA counts spellings, not names. Eylan went to 29 boys in 2025, but Eilan is the same name said out loud. Together the 2 spellings went to 69, which makes it the 859th most-given boys’ name of the year — 2,898 places above the chart.

  • Eilan40
  • Eylan29

About 1 boy in 24,755 born in 2025 was given one of these spellings — against 1 in 58,899 for Eylan itself.

Spellings are grouped by a fixed rule that folds interchangeable English spellings of one sound (ck/k, ph/f, x/ks, a non-initial y for i) and keeps vowels apart, so Sean and Shawn stay separate names. It errs towards splitting: a family here is never larger than the truth. SSA national data, 2025. Method

The Imad test

Every popular name lives one long story — a climb, a peak, a slow settling back. Eylan's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Imad climbed just as high around 1994, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Imad's path sketches the road Eylan is walking now.
