Andie is a first name typically given to girls, but in rare cases also used as a boys name.
Andie 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 1,224 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,223 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Andie.
In fact, the name Andie 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), Andie seemed to be more popular than ever in 2022. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,015, 219 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Andie, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Andie was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
You may not know anyone named Andie, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 34 states are home to women and girls named Andie. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Andie living in one state or another. If your name is Andie and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Utah, which has the most people named Andie relative to the population, you still have to ask 9,496 women and girls their names before you hear Andie as an answer just once.
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 Andie 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 Andie 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 Andie, you can simply say:

Nut
Dinosaur
