Amery is a first name for girls, occasionally also given to boys.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Amery 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 Amery. In the SmartGenius ranking, Amery is #4,766 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 Amery.
In fact, the name Amery 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), Amery seemed to be more popular than ever in 2013. Although the name never ranked higher than #3,198, 44 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Amery, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Amery was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Amery a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #6,090 - with a total of 16 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.
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Amery, 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 Amery living in one state or another (if your name is Amery 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 102,803 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Amery. So, if your name is Amery it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Amery 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 five letters, the name Amery 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 Amery 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Amery, you can simply say:
