Most popular boy names in the 80s in Alaska

Texas baby boy names from the 1980s show declines up to 88% in popularity compared to 2015–2024, with some names like Jacob increasing by 13%.

  • Using Social Security Administration data, Stacker ranked boys' names by births in 1980–1989 and compared totals with counts from 2015–2024.
  • Against a backdrop of MTV-era trends, 1980s pop culture and celebrities like Michael J. Fox and Robert Palmer helped drive parents' naming choices, Stacker compiled using SSA records.
  • Several examples show steep declines, with Justin falling-88.4% and Brian-88.7% from 2015–2024, while Anthony declined-23.6%, according to data compiled by Stacker.
  • Some names remain relatively common in 2015–2024 — for example Jose had 11,940 and William had 10,959 in that period, according to Stacker.
  • The national totals show that the top 1980s name recorded 663,824 births, illustrating naming concentration and cultural shifts highlighted by Stacker's SSA-based list.
