The first name 
Arriel

Arriel is a female first name.

Arriel – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Arriel 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 Arriel. That means that a girl named Arriel 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 Arriel.

Arriel -
at home in Illinois and Michigan

If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Arriel, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in Illinois and Michigan. 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 Arriel living in one state or another (if your name is Arriel and you live outside of Illinois and Michigan, 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 1,154,706 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Arriel. So, if your name is Arriel it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Arriel already makes you special.

Arriel 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 Arriel 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
