Edinson – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a boy named Edinson in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Edinson in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Edinson by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Edinson ranks at #5,175. That means there are 5,174 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer.

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter E is neither particularly common nor particularly rare as a first letter for boys' names: 3.8% of all common boys' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of boys' names, by the way, are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.

With seven letters, the name Edinson 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.

That means that with 3.8%, E as the first letter in boys' names is almost as common as all 26 letters on average - and of all the boys' names that start with an E, Edward is the most common.
