SSA name data comes from Social Security card applications for U.S. births and is grouped by the sex recorded on the application; it is not a statement about gender identity. Years without a public SSA row are reported as “not reported in SSA public data,” not zero, because SSA suppresses names with fewer than five occurrences in any geographic area.
