The first name 
Enna

Enna is a first name for girls.

Enna – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Enna in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Enna in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Enna by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Enna ranks at #6,266. That means there are 6,265 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 Enna.

Enna -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Enna a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1894 – at that time, it landed at position 988 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 Enna 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 Enna, 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 Enna was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

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.

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.
