Cassand is a female first name.
Recently, the name Cassand has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Cassand. That means that a girl named Cassand is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. Of all Americans currently living, not even one in 100,000 would answer if you shouted out the name Cassand.
If you’re looking for someone named Cassand, you might want to head to Mississippi. Why Mississippi of all places? Well, simply because, according to official statistics, there are no women or girls named Cassand living in any other state. However, we have to admit that a first name is only listed in the official statistics of a state if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it may well be that there are still a few women and girls named Cassand living in one state or another. But, in any case the name is extremely rare (if your name happens to be Cassand and you live outside of Mississippi, we would be very grateful if you could let us know so that we can refine our statistics even further). By the way, even in Mississippi, the name Cassand is not really that common – there are only 5 women and girls with this name living there right now, which is not more than 0.00026% of all female residents of Mississippi – so if you are one of them, you can rightly say that you are someone very 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 seven letters, the name Cassand 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.
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 Cassand 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...
