About this app

Nametide is a baby name finder built on real records: every name in the US baby-name records since 2016, and every older one given to at least 100 babies, with how many babies were given it in every year from 1880 to 2025. It works with no connection and no account, and it needs the internet only for ads.

★ BROWSE AND SEARCH 63,481 NAMES
Search by how a name starts or by any part of it. Browse girl names, boy names and names used for both, and filter by popularity in the US in 2025 (top 100, top 1000 or rarer), by names rising or falling over the last ten years, by starting letter and by length. Everything is on your phone, so every change answers at once.

★ EVERY NAME'S RECORD, YEAR BY YEAR
A chart of the babies given each name in the US in every year from 1880 to 2025, with its rank and count in 2025, its best year, its total and its trend. For a name used for both, the split between girls and boys. A year with fewer than 5 babies is left out of the records to protect privacy, and Nametide shows it as a gap, never as zero.

★ A SHORTLIST FOR TWO, ON ONE PHONE
Tap the heart to keep a name. Rate it Love it, Like it or Maybe, and write a note. Choosing together? Turn on two people rating and see both of your ratings side by side, best rated first. Add your surname to see every name with it. Names you do not want to see again go on a No thanks list, and any of them can come back.

★ SHARE IT, BACK IT UP
Share your shortlist as plain text through your phone's share menu, with anyone you choose. Save a backup file with your lists, ratings and notes, and restore it on a new phone.

★ WHAT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
- Every name and every number is inside the app. Searching, browsing and rating never use the internet.
- Your shortlist, ratings, notes and No thanks list stay on your phone. They leave it only if you share your shortlist or save a backup where you choose.
- There is no account and nothing to sign in to. Android's backup of the app's data is switched off, so a new phone starts with an empty shortlist unless you restore a backup.

★ WHAT LEAVES YOUR PHONE: ONLY THE ADS
Ads are shown by Google's ads software, which receives your phone's advertising ID, an approximate location from its internet address and how ads are seen. Nametide never gives it a name you looked at, your lists or your notes. An ad only ever comes as you leave a name you have read, never while you search or rate. Watch a short video in Settings to turn ads off for a day.

★ WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM
US baby-name data from the Social Security Administration: babies born in the US, counted from applications for Social Security cards by year of birth. Nametide is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Social Security Administration. The numbers are for the US only and say nothing about any other country.

No meanings or origins: the records have none, and Nametide does not make them up.
