Births per year, rank history and how many Djangos are alive today.
Django (male) is a rare boys' name in England and Wales, ranked 5120th in 2024 and given to 3 babies. The name peaked in 2008, when 11 babies were given the name, the 1828th most popular that year. It was almost as popular in 2016, with 10 babies given the name that year. It has declined since 2008; the 2024 figure is roughly 27% of its peak.
The Django you are most likely to meet is around 19 years old. Half of all Djangos born in England and Wales are between 12 and 27, and there are at least 180 of them alive today. If you walk into a room of 100 males, there's less than a 1% chance that anyone will be called Django - on average, only one in every 1,684 such rooms contains a Django.

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.
