Trevor by the numbers

In 2025, 12 babies in England and Wales were named Trevor. In the US, 898 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.

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

Its American peak was 6,598 babies in 1998, so it is a 1990s name that has since fallen a long way.

At its height, in 1995, about 1 in 330 American boys born that year was called Trevor.
