The first name 
Fara

Fara is a first name for girls.

Fara – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Fara in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Fara in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Fara by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Fara ranks at #9,127. That means there are 9,126 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 Fara.

Fara -
swimming against the tide

If your name is Fara your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Fara never ranked higher than position 1,610 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Fara. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1976 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Fara because that was a few decades ago - unless you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.

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

2022 - looking for Fara?

As in the last century, Fara still proves to be exceptional. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 5 times in the entire U.S. So, a Fara from 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.

Fara -
at home only in a few regions of the USA

The first name Fara is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 113 Americans in total bear this name. And these 113 women are located in only five states: California, Florida, New Jersey, New York and Texas (it should be noted that the official statistics provide the data per state only if there are at least 5 women with this name in the state. So, if your name is Fara 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 girls and women named Fara in relation to it’s female population is New York. And yet even there, only one in 138,759 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Fara.

Fara has 4 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 four letters, the name Fara 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 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.

Other names with 
F, a, r and a
