Aldrin is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Aldrin in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Aldrin in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Aldrin by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Aldrin ranks at #5,264. That means there are 5,263 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 Aldrin.
