Florentino is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Florentino in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Florentino in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Florentino by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Florentino ranks at #6,130. That means there are 6,129 more common boys 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 Florentino.
In not even one in five states you will find more than 4 men and boys with the name Florentino. This first name might not be completely unknown, but in the entire United States, there are about 1,831 Americans who bear this name. And these 1,831 men and boys named Florentino live in no more than 8 different states, including for example Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii and Illinois. In the other 41 states, there are either none or less than a handful boys and men with this name (to explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five men with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Florentino lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Florentino and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics). The state with the most boys and men named Florentino relative to its male population is Texas. And even there, only one male in 10,163 would raise his hand if you asked, who is called Florentino.
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 boys' names: only 1.5% of all common boys' names in the US begin with an F. By the way, the most common first letters of boys' names are J, A and D, while X, U and Q are the least common initials of boys' names.
With ten letters, the name Florentino is obviously a particularly long first name used in the U.S.: only 1.8% of all common first names have exactly ten letters. 98% of all first names are shorter, while only 0.6% of all boys’ and girls’ names need more than ten letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long with no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
Therefore: As 1.5% of all boys' names begin with an F, this initial letter is significantly less common than the other letters on average. However, individual boys' names with F are really popular, the most common currently being Frank.
If your name is Florentino 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...
