In 2025, 30 babies in England and Wales were named Anne. In the US, 522 were, though that figure is from 2017 — the most recent full year we hold. Its US peak was 5,741 in 1959.
Looking further back: between 1880 and 2008, Anne was most common in 1915, when it went to 0.42% of American babies of that sex. Squarely vintage-revival territory.
