Aashi is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Aashi is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 girls have been named Aashi. In the SmartGenius ranking, Aashi is #3,747 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 Aashi.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Aashi in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 210 women and girls named Aashi, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 210 women and girls named Aashi live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Illinois, New Jersey, New York and North Carolina. In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Aashi. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Aashi lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Aashi and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Aashi relative to its female population is New Jersey. And even there, only one in 64,748 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Aashi.
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 five letters, the name Aashi 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 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 Aashi 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...
