Silvestre is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Silvestre in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Silvestre in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Silvestre by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Silvestre ranks at #4,042. That means there are 4,041 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Silvestre.
If your name is Silvestre your parents may be very proud to let their son swim against the tide: The name Silvestre has never ranked higher than position 1,293 in our statistics and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea to choose the name Silvestre for their son. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1934 to give the name more often than usual – only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Silvestre because that was several decades ago – unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in your neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Silvestre was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Silvestre is still an exception. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 14 times in the entire USA. So a Silvestre of 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.
The first name Silvestre is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 1,537 Americans in total bear this name. And these 1,537 men are located in only five states: California, Florida, Illinois, New York and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Silvestre and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Silvestre in relation to it’s male population is Texas. And yet even there, only one in 13,942 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Silvestre present.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter S is a quite popular first letter for boys’ names. Because: 5.9% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for boys’ names are J, A and D.
With nine letters, the name Silvestre is relatively long compared to other names. In fact, 5.6% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly nine letters. 92% of all first names are shorter, while not even 2.5% of all boys’ and girls’ names use ten or more letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
This means that with 5.9% of all boys' names that begin with an S, this first letter is much more common than all 26 letters on average - and the most popular one of all the boys’ names starting with S is Steven.
If your name is Silvestre 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Silvestre, you can simply say:
Sun
Igloo
Lion
Violin
Elephant
