The U.S. Census Bureau released a names dataset for first names and surnames.
The Census Bureau receives numerous requests to supply information on name frequency. In an effort to comply with those requests, the Census Bureau has embarked on a names list project involving a tabulation of names from the Census of Population and Housing.
These files contain only the frequency of a given name, no specific individual information.
You can currently download data for names that occurred at least 100 times in the 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2020 censuses.
I wonder how well these match with the annual baby names dataset from the Social Security Administration.
