- counting every spelling
The SSA counts spellings, not names. Millan went to 20 boys in 2025, but Milan and Mylan are the same name said out loud. Together the 3 spellings went to 1,525, which makes it the 234th most-given boys’ name of the year — 4,623 places above the chart.
About 1 boy in 1,120 born in 2025 was given one of these spellings — against 1 in 85,404 for Millan 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
