Joury by the numbers

In 2025, 6 babies in England and Wales were named Joury. In the US, 30 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.

It is used at about the same rate on both sides of the Atlantic.

Its best year in America so far is the most recent one on record, which means it was still climbing when the records end.

What we can tell you about Joury
