The first name 
Aniko

Aniko is a female first name, but it has increasingly been given to boys for a number of years.

Aniko – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Aniko in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Aniko in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Aniko by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Aniko ranks at #8,654. That means there are 8,653 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 Aniko.
