Claudy is a first name typically given to boys, but in rare cases also used as a girls name.
Recently, the name Claudy 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Claudy. That means that a boy named Claudy is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his 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 Claudy.
Meeting a man or boy named Claudy is something really special. Out of all 50 states, men and boys named Claudy can be found in only two: Mississippi and Texas. No other state currently has residents named Claudy. However, we must admit that 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 quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Claudy living in one state or another. (If your name is Claudy and you live outside of Mississippi or Texas, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know so we can refine our statistics even further.) Either way, the name is quite rare. The best chance of meeting a Claudy is in Mississippi, as there live more men and boys with this name in relation to the population than in any other state. But even here in Mississippi, only 0.00025% of all male residents are called Claudy – that’s just one in 397,991! And even in all the states, Mississippi and Texas, combined there are only a total of 10 men going by that name. So, if your name is Claudy, chances are you will never meet another man bearing that extraordinary first name.
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 six letters, the name Claudy 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 5.2% 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 Claudy 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...
