Denisse is a first name for girls.
Denisse is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth girl, and therefore ranks at 1,347 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,346 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Denisse.
Denisse is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Denisse cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #781 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2020. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Denisse, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their daughter. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Denisse seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Denisse was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
121 babies were named Denisse in 2022 - that's 1 in 1,225,057 newborn girls. With this number, the girls' name Denisse ranked 1,549 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
The odds of living in the same statae as someone named Denisse are about the same as meeting someone with blue eyes in the entire country – both odds are about 25 to 30 %. More precisely, the first name Denisse is registered in 17 states, among which are Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida or Georgia. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Denisse live in Arizona, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 4,877 would turn around if you called the name Denisse across Arizona.
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 Denisse 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.
If your name is Denisse 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...
