Aven is a unisex first name. It is given slightly more often to boys than to girls.
Few children have been named Aven in recent years. Although it is used several times each year, only approximately 6 out of 100,000 children are currently called Aven. Whether you’re a boy or a girl, you will most likely be the only person with the special name Aven at your school. In our SmartGenius ranking, Aven is number *** on the list of most common first names.
Aven is an English unisex name that derived from the Irish feminine name Aoibheann. It developed from the Old Irish names Oébfinn or Aíbinn meaning ‘blessed beauty’. Aven is a very rare name, but still, it is popular like never before in the 21st century.
The name Aven has... already been in use since the early 19th century at least.
In fact, the name Aven 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), Aven seemed to be more popular than ever in 2012. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,571, 316 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Aven, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Aven was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Aven a few times. Among all babies it ranked #2,599 - with a total of 159 newborns. 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 children with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
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 given names. 10.3% of all common first names in the US start with this letter. The second most common initial letter in first names is J.
With four letters, the name Aven is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four letters. 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 10.3% of all first names start with an A, this initial letter occurs nearly three times as often as all other letters on average.
If your name is Aven and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
