The first name 
Anique

Anique is a first name for girls.

Anique – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Anique has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Anique. That means that a girl named Anique is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Anique.

Anique -
once in a blue moon

Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Anique. Girls named Anique have made themselves scarce. But some parents have recently gotten a taste for it: At No. 3,702 Anique ranked higher than ever in 2004. By comparison, there have been 109 years in which the first name Anique has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Anique only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves really special!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Anique was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Anique -
at home in California and Texas

If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Anique, 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 Anique living in one state or another (if your name is Anique 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 2,241,104 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Anique. So, if your name is Anique it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Anique already makes you special.

Anique has 6 letters 
and begins with an A

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 six letters, the name Anique is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. 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.

Other names with
