The story in the numbers
967 boys have been named Amil in the United States since 1886, according to Social Security records. The busiest single year was 2020, with 40 births.

Half of everyone given the name was born by 2000, and the 2010s alone account for 20%. It has spent 1 of 145 years in the top 1,000.
Amil is used for both sexes: 21% of its bearers are girls (264), most of them born around 2000.

What this page does not tell you. The Social Security data records how many babies were given a name, not what the name means or where it comes from — so neither do we. Counts cover people with a Social Security number; names given to fewer than five babies in a year are withheld. More on the data.
