Alisandra is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Alisandra in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Alisandra in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Alisandra by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Alisandra ranks at #8,425. That means there are 8,424 more common girls 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 Alisandra.
In fact, the name Alisandra hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Alisandra 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 4,428, 22 parents chose it in 1999 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Alisandra, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Alisandra was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Alisandra a few times. Among all newborn girls, it ranked 10,613, for a total of 7 babies. 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 Alisandra seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Alisandra, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in California and Texas. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if tehre are at least five people with that name living there – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Alisandra living in one state or another (if your name is Alisandra 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 659,148 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Alisandra. So, if your name is Alisandra it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Alisandra already makes you special.
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 nine letters, the name Alisandra is relatively long compared to other names. In fact, 5.6% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly nine letters. 92% of all first names are shorter, while not even 2.5% of all boys’ and girls’ names use ten or more letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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 Alisandra 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...
