The 52-year story
Nature first appears in the Social Security records in 1973, when 10 girls received the name. Its all-time peak is essentially right now: 2025, with 67 babies and a rank of #2583. Names at their peak can keep climbing — or be one trend cycle from the long slide that eventually hits most popular names.
