Baylen is a first name for boys, occasionally also given to girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Baylen is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 boys have been named Baylen. In the SmartGenius ranking, Baylen is #2,262 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Baylen.
In fact, the name Baylen 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), Baylen seemed to be more popular than ever in 2012. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,536, 93 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Baylen, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Baylen was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Baylen a few times. Among all newborn boys it ranked #1,841 - with a total of 73 baby boys. 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 boys with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and special.
In not even one in five states you will find more than 4 men and boys with the name Baylen. This first name might not be completely unknown, but in the entire United States, there are about 207 Americans who bear this name. And these 207 men and boys named Baylen live in no more than 7 different states, including for example California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois and Louisiana. In the other 42 states, there are either none or less than a handful boys and men with this name (to explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five men 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 Baylen lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Baylen and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Baylen relative to its male population is Louisiana. And even there, only one male in 33,805 would raise his hand if you asked, who is called Baylen.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter B is neither particularly common nor particularly rare as a first letter for boys' names: 4.2% of all common boys' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of boys' names are J and A, while X and U are the least common initials of boys' names.
With six letters, the name Baylen 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.
Thus, it follows that if 4.2% of all boys' names start with a B, this initial letter occurs about as often as all 26 letters on average. And maybe interesting to know: Brian is the boys’ name starting with B, which is the most common of all.
If your name is Baylen 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...
