Deandra is a first name for girls, occasionally also given to boys.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Deandra in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Deandra in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Deandra by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Deandra ranks at #6,376. That means there are 6,375 more common girls 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 Deandra.
Deandra 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 Deandra - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 701 in 1988. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this girls' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Deandra really in tune with her generation.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Deandra was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

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.

With seven letters, the name Deandra has a typical length for first names in the US.
