Dyana is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Dyana in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Dyana in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Dyana by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Dyana ranks at #6,290. That means there are 6,289 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 Dyana.
While Dyana is not one of the most popular names of all time, it seems to have attracted parents especially more than 50 years ago in the last century. In 1974, the name Dyana reached its highest popularity with #1,915 in our ranking of all female first names. As it is so exquisite, mothers and fathers did not always come up with the idea of naming their daughter Dyana. Perhaps it was because the name was only occasionally in keeping with the spirit of the times - and girls in those decades were given the unusual and beautiful name of Dyana.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Dyana was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, 6 babies were born with the name Dyana. This puts the name in rank 11,784 in the SmartGenius statistics - or in other words, one in 24,705,317 newborns was named Dyana that year. Ever since first names have been registered, Dyana has been and remains marvelously unusual!
The first name Dyana is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 440 Americans in total bear this name. And these 440 women are located in only five states: California, Florida, New Jersey, New York and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Dyana and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most girls and women named Dyana in relation to it’s female population is California. And yet even there, only one in 47,193 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Dyana.
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 five letters, the name Dyana is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. 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 Dyana 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...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Dyana, you can simply say:
