Enoc is a first name for boys.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Enoc is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 boys have been named Enoc. In the SmartGenius ranking, Enoc is #2,505 on the list of most common boys names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Enoc.
In fact, the name Enoc did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Enoc seemed to be more popular than ever in 2022. Although the name never ranked higher than #2,085, 60 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Enoc, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Enoc was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
The first name Enoc is a true rarity among all men and boys currently living in the United States – only 454 Americans in total bear this name. And these 454 men are located in only five states: California, Florida, New York, Texas and Virginia (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 men with this name in the state. So, if your name is Enoc and you live outside the states marked on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Enoc in relation to it’s male population is California. And yet even there, only one in 62,573 men would raise his hand if asked whether there was a Enoc present.
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 four letters, the name Enoc is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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 3.8%, 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.
If your name is Enoc 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...
