Masen is a first name typically given to boys, but in rare cases also used as a girls name.
Masen is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth boy, and therefore ranks at 1216 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,215 boys names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Masen.
Masen is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Masen cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #676 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2012. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Masen, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their son. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Masen seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Masen was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

You may not know anyone named Masen, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 35 states are home to men and boys named Masen. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few men and boys named Masen living in one state or another. If your name is Masen and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Hawaii, which has the most people named Masen relative to the population, you still have to ask 28,593 men and boys their names before you hear Masen as an answer just once.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter M is a particularly popular initial letter for boys’ names – 6.2% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter.

With five letters, the name Masen is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. 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 with 6.2% of all boys' names that begin with an M, this first letter is much more common than the other letters on average. If you are now wondering which boys’ name with M is the most common... the answer is Michael.
If your name is Masen 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...
