Cassondra is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Cassondra 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 Cassondra. That means that a girl named Cassondra is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Cassondra.
Is the name Cassondra a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1989, when it ranked #632 with 313 newborn girls receiving this special first name. In times of emerging digitalization, it thus experienced its last peak. Since Cassondra is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their daughter this unusual name. So, if your name is Cassondra, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Cassondra was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

You may not know anyone named Cassondra, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 33 states are home to women and girls named Cassondra. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Cassondra living in one state or another. If your name is Cassondra and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones. In Minnesota, which has the most people named Cassondra relative to the population, you still have to ask 19,121 women and girls their names before you hear Cassondra as an answer just once.
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 nine letters, the name Cassondra is relatively long compared to other names. In fact, 5.6% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly nine letters. 92% of all first names are shorter, while not even 2.5% of all boys’ and girls’ names use ten or more letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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 Cassondra 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...
