The first name 
Aamir

Aamir is a male first name. In very rare cases it is also used for girls.

Aamir is a well-known but special name!

Aamir 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 1279 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,278 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 Aamir.

Aamir -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Aamir did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Aamir seemed to be more popular than ever in 2015. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,162, 144 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Aamir, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Aamir was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Aamir in 2022 – originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Aamir a few times. Among all newborn boys it ranked #1,377 - with a total of 120 baby boys. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving boys with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.

Aamir has 5 letters 
and begins with an A

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter A is a very popular first letter for boys’ names. That’s because 9.0% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letter J is more common for boys' names.

With five letters, the name Aamir 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 if 9.0% of all boys' names start with an A, this initial letter occurs nearly three times as often as all other letters on average. And by the way: Of all the boys' names that start with an A, Anthony is the most common.

Other names with
