Aaric is a first name for boys.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Aaric in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Aaric in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Aaric by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Aaric ranks at #3,964. That means there are 3,963 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 Aaric.
In fact, the name Aaric 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), Aaric seemed to be more popular than ever in 2016. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,912, 35 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Aaric, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Aaric was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Aaric a few times. Among all newborn boys it ranked #9,177 - with a total of 6 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.
If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Aaric, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in California or Texas. However, we must admit that 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 quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Aaric living in one state or another. (If your name is Aaric and you live outside of California and Texas, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know so we can refine our statistics even further.) Which means – if you put this number in relation to the population of the USA – only one in 468,680 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Aaric. So if your name is Aaric, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Aaric already makes you quite special.
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 Aaric 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.
If your name is Aaric 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...
