Breon is a male first name. In some cases it's also given to girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Breon is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 boys have been named Breon. In the SmartGenius ranking, Breon is #2,633 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 Breon.
Breon is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Schoolkids of the early 20th century probably didn't have classmates named Breon - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 933 in 1994. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this boys' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Breon really in tune with his generation.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Breon was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
27 babies were named Breon in 2022 - that's 1 in 5,978,741 newborn boys. With this number, the boys' name Breon ranked 3,477 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
The odds of having a man or boy named Breon in your home state are about the same as the chance for a white Christmas in New York City – in both cases they are less than 30%. More precisely, the first name Breon is registered in 18 states, among which are California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois or Indiana. In proportion to the male population, most men and boys with the first name Breon live in Virginia, but even there the name is rather special – on average, you would have to ask 13,764 men and boys in Virginia for their name before you meet one who answers with Breon.
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 Breon 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 Breon 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...
