Cadie is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Cadie in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Cadie in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Cadie by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Cadie ranks at #8,114. That means there are 8,113 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 Cadie.
In fact, the name Cadie hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Cadie wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1993, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 3,144, 32 parents chose it in 1993 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Cadie, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Cadie was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Cadie a few times. Among all newborn girls, it ranked 11,784, for a total of 6 babies. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Cadie seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Cadie, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in . However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if tehre are at least five people with that name living there – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Cadie living in one state or another (if your name is Cadie and you live outside of , we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know, so we can refine our statistics even further). Which means – if you put this number in relation to the population of the USA – only one in 320,158 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Cadie. So, if your name is Cadie it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Cadie already makes you special.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter C is a frequent initial letter for girls' names. This is because 6.0% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M.
With five letters, the name Cadie 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.
That means that with 6.0% of all girls' names that begin with a C, this first letter is much more common than the average of all letters. And which girls’ name beginning with C do you think is the most common in the US? The answer is... Carol.
If your name is Cadie 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Cadie, you can simply say:
