Berit is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Berit in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Berit in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Berit by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Berit ranks at #7,628. That means there are 7,627 more common girls 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 Berit.

By comparison, there have been 83 years in which the first name Berit 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 1980. In general, parents name their daughters Berit only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves really special!

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 Berit living in one state or another (if your name is Berit and you live outside of , we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know, so we can refine our statistics even further).

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 five letters, the name Berit is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five 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.
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.
