The story in the numbers
2,124 girls have been named Lanell in the United States since 1914, according to Social Security records. The busiest single year was 1957, with 52 births.
The name has all but left use: none recorded in 2024, against 52 at the peak.
Half of everyone given the name was born by 1953, and the 1950s alone account for 17%.
It is overwhelmingly a girl’s name: 354 boys have also been given it, 14% of the total.

What this page does not tell you. The Social Security data records how many babies were given a name, not what the name means or where it comes from — so neither do we. Counts cover people with a Social Security number; names given to fewer than five babies in a year are withheld. More on the data.
