Jaime by the numbers

In 2025, 11 babies in England and Wales were named Jaime. In the US, 665 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.

For the size of the two countries, it is given several times more often in the US than in England and Wales.

Its American peak was 7,836 babies in 1976, so it is a 1970s name that has since fallen a long way.

At its height, in 1980, about 1 in 1,300 American babies born that year was called Jaime.
