Alyssandra is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Alyssandra 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 Alyssandra. In the SmartGenius ranking, Alyssandra is #4,168 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 Alyssandra.
In fact, the name Alyssandra 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), Alyssandra seemed to be more popular than ever in 2012. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,909, 52 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Alyssandra, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Alyssandra was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Alyssandra a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #10,613 - with a total of 7 baby girls. 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 girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
The first name Alyssandra is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 244 Americans in total bear this name. And these 244 women are located in only four states: California, Florida, New York and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Alyssandra and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Alyssandra in relation to it’s female population is Texas. And yet even there, only one in 88,232 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Alyssandra.
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 ten letters, the name Alyssandra is obviously a particularly long first name used in the U.S.: only 1.8% of all common first names have exactly ten letters. 98% of all first names are shorter, while only 0.6% of all boys’ and girls’ names need more than ten 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 Alyssandra 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...
