The first name 
Bina

Bina is a first name for girls.

Bina – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Bina in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Bina in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Bina by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Bina ranks at #5,476. That means there are 5,475 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 Bina.

Bina -
at home in New Jersey and New York

If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Bina, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in New Jersey and New York. 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 Bina living in one state or another (if your name is Bina and you live outside of New Jersey and New York, 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 81,735 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Bina. So, if your name is Bina it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Bina already makes you special.

Bina has 4 letters 
and begins with a B

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 four letters, the name Bina 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.

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.

Other names with 
B, i, n and a

If you take all the letters in the name Bina – B, i, n and a – and put them together again, you can form other names, such as Bani or others.
