Bradd is a male first name.
Recently, the name Bradd 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Bradd. That means that a boy named Bradd is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his 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 Bradd.
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 Bradd. Boys named Bradd have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,345 Bradd ranked higher than ever in 1965. By comparison, there have been 95 years in which the first name Bradd 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 sons Bradd only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves really special!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Bradd was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Bradd, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in Ohio or Pennsylvania. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Bradd living in one state or another. (If your name is Bradd and you live outside of Ohio and Pennsylvania, 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 347,996 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Bradd. So if your name is Bradd, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Bradd already makes you quite special.
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 five letters, the name Bradd 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, 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 Bradd 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Bradd, you can simply say:
