Faiza -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Faiza 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), Faiza seemed to be more popular than ever in 2017. Although the name never ranked higher than #3,189, 43 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Faiza, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Faiza was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Faiza has 5 letters 
and begins with an F

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter F is quite rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 1.2% of all common girls' names in the US begin with an F. 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 Faiza 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 if 1.2% of all girls' names begin with an F, this initial letter is significantly less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are girls' names with F that are quite popular, the most common at present is Frances.
