Alysha is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Alysha is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 girls have been named Alysha. In the SmartGenius ranking, Alysha is #2,969 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Alysha.
Alysha is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Schoolkids of the early 20th century probably didn't have classmates named Alysha - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 395 in 1990. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this girls' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Alysha really in tune with her generation.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Alysha was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
38 babies were named Alysha in 2022 - that's 1 in 3,900,839 newborn girls. With this number, the girls' name Alysha ranked 3,438 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter A is the most popular first letter for girls’ names. 11.8% of all common girls’ names in the US start with this letter. The second most common first letter in girls' names is S.
With six letters, the name Alysha is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
That means that if 11.8% of all girls' names start with an A, this initial letter occurs over three times as often as all other letters on average. And, by the way, of all the girls' names that begin with the letter A, the name Ashley is the most common.
If your name is Alysha and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
