Eller is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Eller 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 Eller. That means that a girl named Eller 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 Eller.
Is the name Eller a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1882 – at that time, it landed at position 600 with 9 newborn girls receiving this special first name. This was the last peak in a world without airplanes, computers, rock music, or even television. Because Eller 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 Eller, 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 Eller was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
If you are reading this and you know someone with the name Eller born in 2022, please get in touch with us. Because we could not find any newborn girls with this name for the said year. Note: The official statistics only include names given at least 5 times in a year. So, if you know a Eller born in 2022, that seems like a real fluke!
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Eller, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in Mississippi and South Carolina. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if tehre are at least five people with that name living there – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Eller living in one state or another (if your name is Eller and you live outside of Mississippi and South Carolina, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know, so we can refine our statistics even further). Which means – if you put this number in relation to the population of the USA – only one in 385,009 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Eller. So, if your name is Eller it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Eller already makes you special.
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 five letters, the name Eller 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.
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 Eller 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...
