In 2018, 2 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Leah who is registered female with the Social Security Administration. It is the 330th most common female first name for living U.S. citizens.
Leah has been in use since the 1880's and since the 1980's has been a consistently used name.
I see this name listed as female, with only "Lee" listed as masculine. However, I have known several men named "Leah", so it is used for both sexes.
