Analiyah is a female first name.
Analiyah is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth girl, and therefore ranks at 2,076 in the SmartGenius statistics.

It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Analiyah in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 616 women and girls named Analiyah, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 616 women and girls named Analiyah live in no more than 9 different states, including for example Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida and Illinois. In all other 40 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Analiyah. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Analiyah lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Analiyah and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Analiyah relative to its female population is Arizona. And even there, only one in 56,006 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Analiyah.
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 eight letters, the name Analiyah is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. 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 Analiyah 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...
