Cordero is a male first name. In very rare cases it is also used for girls.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Cordero in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Cordero in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Cordero by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Cordero ranks at #4,567. That means there are 4,566 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 Cordero.
Cordero is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Schoolkids of the early 20th century probably didn't have classmates named Cordero - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 451 in 1987. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this boys' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Cordero really in tune with his generation.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Cordero was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
7 babies were named Cordero in 2022 - that's 1 in 23,060,857 newborn boys. With this number, the boys' name Cordero ranked 8,311 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
The odds that a man or boy named Cordero lives in your home state are about the same as betting on heads or tails in a coin toss. This boy’s name is quite popular, but not equally so throughout the entire USA. You can meet boys and men with the name Cordero in 20 states – which is obviously nearly every second of all 50 states in the USA, for example in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California or Florida. In relation to the number of residents, the most men and boys with the first name Cordero live in Mississippi – here, one in 27,776 bears this name. In comparison, if we look at all living men and boys in the whole country, only one in 166,093 will turn around if you call his first name Cordero.
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 seven letters, the name Cordero 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.
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.

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...
