Izzabelle in the 2020 Census
The 2020 Census recorded 339 people with the first name Izzabelle, which placed it at #27,134 in the published first-name tables. This is a snapshot of people who already had the name at the time of the Census.
The SSA sections elsewhere on this page answer a different question: how often parents gave the name to babies over time. The "people living today" figure on this page is different again: it is a current estimate built from SSA birth records and age-based survival rates, so the two numbers are not expected to match exactly.

In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Izzabelle is White at 77.0%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (12.7%) and Two or More Races (6.2%).

The bar chart below shows how people with the first name Izzabelle described their own race and ethnicity on the 2020 Census form. The Census Bureau groups responses into six broad categories: White, Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, Asian and Pacific Islander, American Indian and Alaska Native, and Two or More Races. When a category has too few respondents for a given name, the Bureau suppresses the figure to protect individual privacy, which is why some names show fewer than six slices.
Percentages are shown so the breakdown is easy to read across every published category. Because the 2020 Census first-name file also includes raw headcounts for each group, Name Census can show those alongside the percentages in the legend and hover tooltip.
Keep in mind that these are self-reported numbers. A first name does not determine a person's race or ethnicity, and the distribution you see here reflects the specific population who happened to carry the name Izzabelle at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

Origin
Meaning and history of Izzabelle
The name Izzabelle is a unique and intriguing variation of the more common name Isabella. Its origins can be traced back to the Latin language, where it derives from the Hebrew name "Elisheba," meaning "God is my oath" or "consecrated to God."
Historically, the name Isabella first gained prominence in the Middle Ages. One of the earliest recorded instances of this name can be found in the 13th century, when Isabella of Angoulême, born in 1186, became the Queen of England through her marriage to King John. Her life and reign left a lasting impact on English history.
Another notable figure bearing this name was Isabella I of Castile, also known as Isabella the Catholic, who reigned as the Queen of Castile and Aragon from 1474 to 1504. Her influential role in the Spanish Inquisition and the unification of Spain under her and her husband Ferdinand II of Aragon left an indelible mark on the nation's history.
In literature, the name Izzabelle has been immortalized in various works. One such example is Isabella, the character in William Shakespeare's play "Measure for Measure," which explores themes of morality, justice, and the complex nature of human desires.
Centuries later, in the world of art, the name Izzabelle found its way into the works of renowned painters. Édouard Manet's famous painting "The Luncheon on the Grass," completed in 1863, features a character named Isabelle, further cementing the name's cultural significance.
Izzabelle has also been a name associated with notable individuals throughout history. One such figure was Isabelle Eberhardt, a Swiss explorer and writer who lived from 1877 to 1904. Known for her unconventional lifestyle and her fascination with the cultures of North Africa, she left behind a rich literary legacy and a captivating personal story.
While the name Izzabelle may be a unique spelling, its roots and historical associations remain deeply intertwined with the more traditional Isabella. From royalty and literature to art and exploration, this name has left an indelible mark on various facets of human culture and history.

FAQ
Izzabelle: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Izzabelle?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 426 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Izzabelle going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 804,588 US residents.
Is Izzabelle a common name?
We classify Izzabelle as "Very Rare". It ranks above 83% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 430 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Izzabelle most popular?
The single biggest year for Izzabelle was 2014, when 34 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Izzabelle is about 14 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
How common was Izzabelle in the 2020 Census?
The published 2020 Census first-name tables recorded 339 people with the name Izzabelle, or 0.11 per 100,000 residents. That placed it at #27,134 in the national Census ranking for first names.
Why is the Census count different from the living estimate?
Because they measure different things. The Census figure is a count of people who had the name Izzabelle in 2020. The living estimate aims to answer a current question instead: how many people with the name are alive today, based on SSA birth records and age-based survival rates. Since one number is a 2020 snapshot and the other is a present-day estimate, they are not expected to be identical.
What does the Census say about the gender split for Izzabelle?
In the 2020 Census sex table, Izzabelle appears almost entirely female. Of the 341 people counted with this name, 99.4% were female and only a very small share were male. The Census view is a snapshot of people living with the name in 2020, while the SSA section above tracks births across time.
What does the Census say about the background of people named Izzabelle?
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Izzabelle is White at 77.0%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (12.7%) and Two or More Races (6.2%). These figures describe the people who had the name in 2020, not any inherent property of the name itself. The percentages in the chart above come from self-reported race and Hispanic-origin responses in the 2020 Census.
Which group reports the name Izzabelle most often in the Census?
White is the largest reported group for people named Izzabelle in the 2020 Census, accounting for 77.0% (261 people in the published table).
Why can the Census sex total and race total differ slightly?
The Census Bureau published separate 2020 tables for sex and for race/Hispanic origin, and the released figures can differ slightly because of privacy protection in the public files. That is why this page treats the gender section and the race/origin section as two related snapshots instead of forcing them into one identical total.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only includes names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files have no Census demographic snapshot. When that happens, the SSA trend, gender history, and state sections still appear, but the 2020 Census demographic sections are omitted.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Izzabelle in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Izzabelle a female name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Izzabelle in the SSA data are female. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Izzabelle still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Izzabelle in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Izzabelle can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
