How Birthday Rarity Is Calculated

Birthday rarity is determined by ranking all 366 possible birth dates (including February 29) from most common to least common using aggregated U.S. birth statistics data. Each date is assigned a rank from 1 (most common) to 366 (rarest) and a percentile score based on its position within the full distribution.

• Rank – Your birthday’s position in the ranked list of all 366 dates from most to least common (e.g., Rank #1 = most births, Rank #366 = fewest births)
• Percentile – The percentage of all birth dates that fall below yours in frequency, indicating how your birthday compares to the full distribution (e.g., 90th percentile = rarer than 90% of all dates)
• Average Daily Births – The estimated average number of babies born in the U.S. on your specific birth date based on historical birth records
• Rarity Classification – Based on your percentile, your birthday is classified into one of several descriptive tiers ranging from Very Common through Fairly Common, Average, Fairly Rare, Rare, and Very Rare

General patterns in U.S. birth data show that late summer dates (particularly September) tend to be the most common birthdays, while holidays and dates in early January, late December, and February 29 tend to fall among the rarest.
