Brailey is a first name typically given to girls, but in rare cases also used as a boys name.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Brailey is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 3 out of 100,000 girls have been named Brailey. In the SmartGenius ranking, Brailey is #3,015 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Brailey.
The odds of living in the same statae as someone named Brailey are about the same as meeting someone with blue eyes in the entire country – both odds are about 25 to 30 %. More precisely, the first name Brailey is registered in 11 states, among which are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia or Illinois. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Brailey live in Texas, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 67,099 would turn around if you called the name Brailey across Texas.
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 seven letters, the name Brailey 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, 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.

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...
