The first name 
Braedyn

Braedyn is a male first name. In some cases it's also given to girls.

When two boys called Braedyn meet...

… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Braedyn is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 4 out of 100,000 boys have been named Braedyn. In the SmartGenius ranking, Braedyn is #1,761 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Braedyn.

Braedyn -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Braedyn, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 29 states are home to men and boys named Braedyn. (To be fair, 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 entirely possible that there are still a few men and boys named Braedyn living in one state or another. If your name is Braedyn and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Texas, which has the most people named Braedyn relative to the population, you still have to ask 64,817 men and boys their names before you hear Braedyn as an answer just once.

Braedyn has 7 letters 
and begins with a B

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 seven letters, the name Braedyn 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, 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.

B, r, a, e, d, y and n
