Avelina -
swimming against the tide

If your name is Avelina your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Avelina never ranked higher than position 1,544 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Avelina. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1932 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Avelina because that was several decades ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.

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

2022 - looking for Avelina?

As in the last century, Avelina still proves to be exceptional. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 52 times in the entire U.S. So, a Avelina from 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.

Avelina -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Avelina. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Avelina lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Avelina and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.).
