Edris is a unisex first name, but it has been given primarily to boys for a number of years.
At least in the US, the name Edris is extremely rare. Recently, only a handful of babies has been named Edris each year. That means it’s extremely unlikely that a boy or girl called Edris will meet someone with the same name. So, Edris is a very special name!
If your name is Edris your parents may be very proud to let their child swim against the tide: The name Edris never ranked higher than position 1,438 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their offspring Edris. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1904 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Edris because that was several decades ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Edris was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Edris still proves to be exceptional. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 17 times in the entire U.S. So, a Edris from 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.
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 given names: 3.8% of all common first names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters of given names are A and J, while U and X are the least common initials of first names.
With five letters, the name Edris 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.
Thus, it follows that with 3.8% of all first names starting with an E, this initial letter occurs exactly as often as all 26 letters on average.
If your name is Edris 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 Edris, you can simply say:

Dinosaur
Rocket

In the navy, sailors of two ships might wave flags to each other to send messages. A sailor holds two flags in specific positions to represent different letters.
