Dallen is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Dallen in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Dallen in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Dallen by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Dallen ranks at #4,375. That means there are 4,374 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 Dallen.
In fact, the name Dallen hardly fits the trend of first names for boys. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Dallen 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 1999, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,925, 45 parents chose it in 1999 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Dallen, 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 Dallen was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Dallen a few times. Among all newborn boys, it ranked 4,324, for a total of 19 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 Dallen seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
The first name Dallen is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 270 Americans in total bear this name. And these 270 men are located in only three states: California, Texas and Utah (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Dallen and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Dallen in relation to it’s male population is Utah. And yet even there, only one in 5,469 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Dallen present.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter D is a quite popular first letter for boys’ names. That’s because 8.5% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters J and A are more common for boys' names.
With six letters, the name Dallen 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.
