Births per year, rank history and how many Julies are alive today.
Julie (female), once a common girls' name, is now rarely given to new babies in England and Wales: just 18 in 2025, ranked 1639th. The name peaked in 1964, when around 14,600 babies were given the name, the 2nd most popular that year. It has declined since 1964; the 2025 figure is roughly 1% of its peak. At least 200,000 babies have been named Julie in England and Wales since 1944. Figures before 1996 are estimates.
The Julie you are most likely to meet is around 62 years old. Half of all Julies born in England and Wales are between 57 and 65, and there are at least 190,000 of them alive today. If you walk into a room of 100 females, there's roughly a 45% chance that at least one of them will be called Julie.

Where this data comes from
Figures from 1996 onwards are the Office for National Statistics' annual baby-name registrations for England and Wales, which record every name given to three or more babies in a year. Figures before 1996 are estimates: the ONS published only top-100 rankings at ten-year intervals back to 1904, so counts for those years are modelled from the rankings, calibrated against Douglas Galbi's long-run research into English name frequencies, and shown with an uncertainty band. Estimates of living bearers combine these birth figures with national life tables and ONS mid-year population estimates.
One limit worth naming: these figures count names as registered at birth. Anyone who changes their name later in life - including trans people, and anyone who adopts a different name by deed poll or simply by use - is not reflected here. Birth registrations record where a name began, not the name a person lives with.
