Johnnie by the numbers

In 2025, 5 babies in England and Wales were named Johnnie. In the US, 138 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 1,868 babies in 1928, so it is a 1920s name that has since fallen a long way.
