Eilene is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Eilene 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 Eilene. That means that a girl named Eilene is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Eilene.
If your name is Eilene your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Eilene never ranked higher than position 1,019 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Eilene. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1938 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 Eilene 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 Eilene was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Eilene still proves to be exceptional. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 9 times in the entire U.S. So, a Eilene from 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Eilene in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 264 women and girls named Eilene, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 264 women and girls named Eilene live in no more than 9 different states, including for example California, Illinois, Iowa, Massachusetts and Michigan. In all other 40 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Eilene. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Eilene lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Eilene and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Eilene relative to its female population is Ohio. And even there, only one in 139,153 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Eilene.
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 girls' names: 3.9% of all common 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, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.
With six letters, the name Eilene 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.
That means that with 3.9%, E as the first letter in girls' names is almost as common as all 26 letters on average - and of all the girls' names that start with an E, Elizabeth is the most common.
If your name is Eilene 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 Eilene, you can simply say:
