The first name 
Demetrio

Demetrio is a male first name.

Demetrio – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Demetrio in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Demetrio in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Demetrio by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Demetrio ranks at #3,602. That means there are 3,601 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 Demetrio.

Demetrio has 8 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 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 eight letters, the name Demetrio is long compared to other names. In fact, 14.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly eight letters. 78% of all first names are shorter, while only 8% of all boys’ and girls’ names use nine letters or even more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with 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.
