The first name 
Awab

Awab is a male first name.

Awab – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Awab in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Awab in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Awab by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Awab ranks at #5,242. That means there are 5,241 more common boys 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 Awab.

Awab -
at home in New York and Texas

If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Awab, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in New York or Texas. However, we must admit that 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 quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Awab living in one state or another. (If your name is Awab and you live outside of New York and Texas, 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 2,437,136 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Awab. So if your name is Awab, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Awab already makes you quite special.

Awab has 4 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 a very popular first letter for boys’ names. That’s because 9.0% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letter J is more common for boys' names.

With four letters, the name Awab 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 9.0% of all boys' names start with an A, this initial letter occurs nearly three times as often as all other letters on average. And by the way: Of all the boys' names that start with an A, Anthony is the most common.
