Cavin is a first name for boys.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Cavin in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Cavin in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Cavin by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Cavin ranks at #4,285. That means there are 4,284 more common boys 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 Cavin.
In fact, the name Cavin hardly fits the trend of first names for boys. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Cavin 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 1981, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,102, 56 parents chose it in 1981 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Cavin, 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 Cavin was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Cavin a few times. Among all newborn boys, it ranked 6,627, for a total of 10 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 Cavin seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
In not even one in five states you will find more than 4 men and boys with the name Cavin. This first name might not be completely unknown, but in the entire United States, there are about 70 Americans who bear this name. And these 70 men and boys named Cavin live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Georgia, Louisiana, Michigan and South Carolina. In the other 43 states, there are either none or less than a handful boys and men with this name (to explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five men with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Cavin lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Cavin and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Cavin relative to its male population is South Carolina. And even there, only one male in 386,188 would raise his hand if you asked, who is called Cavin.
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 boys’ names. This is because 5.2% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of boys' names, by the way, are J, A and D.
With five letters, the name Cavin 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.
With 5.2% of all boys' names that begin with a C, this first letter is thus much more common than the average of all letters. And which boys’ name beginning with C do you think is the most common in the US? The answer is... Charles.
If your name is Cavin 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...
