Bille is a first name for all genders. The name is given as well to boys and to girls.
At least in the US, the name Bille is extremely rare. Recently, only a handful of babies has been named Bille each year. That means it’s extremely unlikely that a boy or girl called Bille will meet someone with the same name. So, Bille is a very special name!
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 given names: 3.7% of all common first names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of given names, by the way, are A, J and K, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of first names.
With five letters, the name Bille 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.
That means that with 3.7%, B as the first letter in given names is almost as common as all 26 letters on average.
If your name is Bille 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...
