Dejohn is a first name for boys.
Recently, the name Dejohn 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Dejohn. That means that a boy named Dejohn is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his 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 Dejohn.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Dejohn. Boys named Dejohn have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 2,849 Dejohn ranked higher than ever before in 1997. By comparison, there have been 107 years in which the first name Dejohn has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their sons Dejohn only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves exceptional!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Dejohn was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Dejohn, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in . However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Dejohn living in one state or another. (If your name is Dejohn and you live outside of , we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know so we can refine our statistics even further.) Which means – if you put this number in relation to the population of the USA – only one in 604,877 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Dejohn. So if your name is Dejohn, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Dejohn already makes you quite special.
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 Dejohn 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. 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 Dejohn 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...
