Adia is a female first name.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Adia is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 girls have been named Adia.

If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Adia.
In fact, the name Adia hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Adia wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1999, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,148, 155 parents chose it in 1999 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Adia, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.

The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Adia seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.

In relation to the number of residents, the most women and girls with the first name Adia live in New York – here, one in 57,649 bears this beautiful name.

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 four letters, the name Adia is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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 Adia 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?

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...
