The first name 
Ashlea

Ashlea is a first name for girls.

Ashlea – a very rare name!

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

Ashlea -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Ashlea a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1987, when it ranked #801 with 200 newborn girls receiving this special first name. In times of emerging digitalization, it thus experienced its last peak. Since Ashlea is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their daughter this unusual name. So, if your name is Ashlea, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!

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

Ashlea -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Ashlea, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 30 states are home to women and girls named Ashlea. (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 Ashlea living in one state or another. If your name is Ashlea 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 Texas, which has the most people named Ashlea relative to the population, you still have to ask 25,819 women and girls their names before you hear Ashlea as an answer just once.

Ashlea 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 Ashlea 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.
