Esco is a first name for boys.
Recently, the name Esco 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Esco. That means that a boy named Esco is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his 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 Esco.
Is the name Esco a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 7 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1901 – at that time, it ranked #724. It thus experienced its last peak in a world without internet and cell phones, even before the first personal computer was built. (Do you remember? Those were those big boxes that couldn't even begin to do what a simple robot vacuum cleaner can do today). Since Esco is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their baby boy this unusual name. So, if your name is Esco, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Esco 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 Esco born in 2022, please get in touch with us. Because we could not find any newborn boys 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 Esco born in 2022, that seems like a real fluke!
If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Esco, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in Mississippi or Tennessee. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Esco living in one state or another. (If your name is Esco and you live outside of Mississippi and Tennessee, 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 311,701 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Esco. So if your name is Esco, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Esco already makes you quite 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 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 Esco 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 Esco 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 Esco, you can simply say:

Cat
