The first name 
Dillie

Dillie is a female first name.

Dillie – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Dillie 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 Dillie. That means that a girl named Dillie is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life.

Dillie -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Dillie a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1881 – at that time, it landed at position 589 with 8 newborn girls receiving this special first name. This was the last peak in a world without airplanes, computers, rock music, or even television. Because Dillie is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always think to give their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Dillie, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, your name is what makes you stand out these days!

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

Dillie has 6 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 six letters, the name Dillie 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 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.
