When two boys called Brylen meet...

If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Brylen.

Brylen -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

The first name Brylen is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 58 Americans in total bear this name. And these 58 men are located in only four states: Alabama, Indiana, Louisiana and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Brylen and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Brylen in relation to it’s male population is Alabama. And yet even there, only one in 243,349 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Brylen present.

Brylen 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: 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 six letters, the name Brylen 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, 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.

Other names with
