Falon – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Falon in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Falon in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Falon by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Falon ranks at #5,181. That means there are 5,180 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 Falon.

Falon -
keeping with the times

Falon is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents.

Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this girls' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Falon really in tune with her generation.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Falon 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 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 Falon 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.
