The first name 
Briann

Briann is a female first name. In very rare cases it is also used for boys.

Briann – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Briann in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Briann in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Briann by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Briann ranks at #7,869. That means there are 7,868 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 Briann.

Briann has 6 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 six letters, the name Briann is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven 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.
