Brianne 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 Brianne is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 4 out of 100,000 girls have been named Brianne. In the SmartGenius ranking, Brianne is #2,430 on the list of most common girls names. In the entire USA, approximately 18,369 people – children, adults and seniors – currently bear the name Brianne. That is 0.01 % of all living Americans.
Brianne 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 Brianne - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 163 in 1979. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this girls' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Brianne really in tune with her generation.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Brianne was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
34 babies were named Brianne in 2022 - that's 1 in 4,359,762 newborn girls. With this number, the girls' name Brianne ranked 3,718 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
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 Brianne 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.
If your name is Brianne 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...
