Census
Lizmarie in the 2020 Census
The 2020 Census recorded 670 people with the first name Lizmarie, which placed it at #16,725 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.

Ancestry and ethnicity for Lizmarie
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Lizmarie is Hispanic at 96.0%. The next largest groups are White (1.9%) and Black (1.3%). These figures describe the people who had the name in 2020, not any inherent property of the name itself.
The bar chart below shows how people with the first name Lizmarie 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 Lizmarie at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

Origin
Meaning and history of Lizmarie
The name Lizmarie is a combination of the given names Elizabeth and Marie, both of which have their origins in different languages and cultures.
Elizabeth is derived from the Hebrew name Elisheva, meaning "God is my oath." It was borne by the wife of Aaron, the brother of Moses, in the Old Testament. The name was introduced to England after the Norman Conquest of 1066 and became popular among the nobility. Some notable historical figures named Elizabeth include Queen Elizabeth I of England (1533-1603), who reigned during the Renaissance period, and Elizabeth Blackwell (1821-1910), the first woman to receive a medical degree in the United States.
Marie, on the other hand, is a French form of the Latin name Maria, which was derived from the Hebrew name Miryam. It was the name of the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ in the New Testament. The name has been widely used in various European cultures, including France, where it gained popularity after the reign of Marie Antoinette (1755-1793), the ill-fated Queen of France during the French Revolution.
While there is no definitive record of when the combination Lizmarie first emerged, it is likely a modern creation, blending the two classical names Elizabeth and Marie. One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Lizmarie is Lizmarie Morales, a Puerto Rican singer and actress born in 1982.
Other notable figures bearing the name Lizmarie include:
1. Lizmarie Guadalupe Jimenez (born 1986), a Puerto Rican beauty queen who won the Miss Puerto Rico Universe title in 2008.
2. Lizmarie Quintana (born 1983), a Puerto Rican actress and model known for her roles in telenovelas.
3. Lizmarie Lopez (born 1987), a Puerto Rican track and field athlete who specializes in the long jump.
4. Lizmarie Colón (born 1984), a Puerto Rican volleyball player who has competed in the Olympic Games.
5. Lizmarie Navarro (born 1989), a Puerto Rican singer and songwriter who has released several studio albums.
While the name Lizmarie is relatively uncommon, it reflects the blending of cultural influences and the creative fusion of traditional names, giving it a unique and modern flair.

FAQ
Lizmarie: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Lizmarie?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 509 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Lizmarie 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 673,388 US residents.
Is Lizmarie a common name?
We classify Lizmarie as "Very Rare". It ranks above 84.7% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 518 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Lizmarie most popular?
The single biggest year for Lizmarie was 2007, when 42 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Lizmarie is about 20 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
How common was Lizmarie in the 2020 Census?
The published 2020 Census first-name tables recorded 670 people with the name Lizmarie, or 0.22 per 100,000 residents. That placed it at #16,725 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 Lizmarie 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 Lizmarie?
In the 2020 Census sex table, Lizmarie appears almost entirely female. Of the 673 people counted with this name, 99.9% 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 Lizmarie?
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Lizmarie is Hispanic at 96.0%. The next largest groups are White (1.9%) and Black (1.3%). 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 Lizmarie most often in the Census?
Hispanic is the largest reported group for people named Lizmarie in the 2020 Census, accounting for 96.0% (643 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 Lizmarie in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Lizmarie a female name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Lizmarie 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 Lizmarie still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Lizmarie 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 Lizmarie 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.
