It appears the name Jonetta was quite popular during certain periods, particularly from the late 1940s to the mid-1960s, with peaks of 27 births in 1961 and 18 births in both 1957 and 1959. However, its popularity declined significantly after the 1970s, with fewer than 10 births per year from 1974 onwards, and only a single-digit number of births in most years since 1992. Overall, Jonetta was given to 901 newborn girls over the period covered by these statistics.
