South Korea

South Korea — 2025 birth registrations, top twenty names per sex across all listed office regions · Court public-work reuse policy: free use where the court owns all economic rights, with specific source attribution

Who is counted

Birth events received through family-registration offices and recorded in the family register during registration year 2025, all 25 available office-region categories selected, including former region codes. These are provisional daily-updated register statistics by registration date, not necessarily babies born in 2025, residents' current addresses, or a guarantee of overseas-office coverage.

Rounding

Exact integer registration counts from the original XLS exports retained. The source percentage column is not used to infer national shares or denominators.

Unpublished counts

Only twenty published names per sex. The grouped 기타 row is an aggregate of other names and is excluded from name records. Absence from the published top twenty is unknown, not zero; no suppression threshold is inferred.

Ranking

Published positions 1–20 retained separately per sex; descending counts validated. Grouped other and published total reconcile exactly but are not ranked given names.

Spelling policy

Exact published Hangul given names retained. No surname, romanization or Hanja variant is added; grouped 기타 and total 합계 are excluded.
