Caylen is a unisex first name. It is given slightly more often to girls than to boys.
At least in the US, the name Caylen is extremely rare. Recently, only a handful of babies has been named Caylen each year. That means it’s extremely unlikely that a boy or girl called Caylen will meet someone with the same name. So, Caylen is a very special name!
In fact, the name Caylen did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Caylen seemed to be more popular than ever in 2010. Although the name never ranked higher than #4,950, 60 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Caylen, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Caylen was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the yet rare name Caylen a few times. Among all babies it ranked #12,356 - with a total of 15 newborns. This means, as you can see above, that the name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it supposedly didn't appear at all for many years - giving children with this first name a sheen of something particularly contemporary and 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 first names. This is because 5.7% of all common given names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of given names, by the way, are A, J and K.
With six letters, the name Caylen 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.
With 5.7% of all first names that begin with a C, this first letter is thus much more common than the average of all letters.
If your name is Caylen 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...
