Berdine is a female first name.
Recently, the name Berdine 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 Berdine. That means that a girl named Berdine 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 Berdine.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Berdine. Girls named Berdine have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,523 Berdine ranked higher than ever in 1922. By comparison, there have been 103 years in which the first name Berdine has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Berdine only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves really special!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Berdine was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Berdine, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in New York and Wisconsin. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if tehre are at least five people with that name living there – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Berdine living in one state or another (if your name is Berdine and you live outside of New York and Wisconsin, 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 608,372 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Berdine. So, if your name is Berdine it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Berdine already makes you special.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: 3.2% of all common girls' names in the US begin with a B. This means that B as the first letter for girls' names is neither particularly common nor rare. The most common first letters of girls' names are A, S and M, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.
With seven letters, the name Berdine has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight 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, if 3.2% of all girls’ names start with a B, this initial letter is slightly less common than all other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are girls' names with B that are quite common in the U.S., the most common at present is Barbara.
If your name is Berdine 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...
