The first name 
Ashira

Ashira is a first name for girls.

Ashira – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Ashira in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Ashira in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Ashira by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Ashira ranks at #5,817. That means there are 5,816 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 Ashira.

Ashira -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Ashira 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), Ashira seemed to be more popular than ever in 2012. Although the name never ranked higher than #4,184, 31 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Ashira, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

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

Ashira in 2022 – originality welcome!

In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Ashira a few times. Among all newborn girls it ranked #6,090 - with a total of 16 baby girls. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving girls with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.

Ashira 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 Ashira 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.
