The first name 
Darlyne

Darlyne is a female first name.

Darlyne – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Darlyne 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 girl in 100,000 has been named Darlyne. That means that a girl named Darlyne is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her 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 Darlyne.

Darlyne -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Darlyne a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 50 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1935 – at that time, it ranked #908. It thus experienced its last peak in a world without internet and cell phones, even before the first personal computer was built. (Do you remember? Those were those big boxes that couldn't even begin to do what a simple robot vacuum cleaner can do today). Since Darlyne is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Darlyne, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Darlyne was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Darlyne has 7 letters 
and begins with a D

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter D is quite common as an initial letter for girls' names. To be precise, 5.6% of all girls' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M.

With seven letters, the name Darlyne 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.

Therefore: As 5.6% of all girls' names start with D, this initial letter occurs much more often than all 26 letters on average. And maybe interesting to know: of all the names that begin with a D, Dorothy is the most common.
