Damar is a first name typically given to boys, but in rare cases also used as a girls name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Damar in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Damar in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Damar by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Damar ranks at #4,268. That means there are 4,267 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 Damar.
In not even one in five states you will find more than 4 men and boys with the name Damar. This first name might not be completely unknown, but in the entire United States, there are about 77 Americans who bear this name. And these 77 men and boys named Damar live in no more than 7 different states, including for example California, Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey and New York. 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 Damar lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Damar 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 Damar relative to its male population is Pennsylvania. And even there, only one male in 418,879 would raise his hand if you asked, who is called Damar.
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 five letters, the name Damar 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.
Therefore: As 8.5% of all boys' names start with a D, this initial letter occurs nearly 2.5-times as often as all 26 letters on average – and the most common one of all the boys’ names starting with D is David.
If your name is Damar 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...
