Galilee is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Galilee is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 girls have been named Galilee. In the SmartGenius ranking, Galilee is #3,739 on the list of most common girls names. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Galilee.
The first name Galilee is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 129 Americans in total bear this name. And these 129 women are located in only four states: California, Florida, 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 Galilee 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 Galilee in relation to it’s female population is Texas. And yet even there, only one in 219,716 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Galilee.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter G is quite rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 2.1% of all common girls' names in the US begin with a G. The most common first letters for girls' names are A and S, while U and X are the least common first letters of girls' names.
With seven letters, the name Galilee has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight letters or more. 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.
This means that if 2.1% of all girls' names begin with a G, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are of course some names that begin with a G and are extremely popular, for example Grace, currently the most common girls' name with G.
If your name is Galilee 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 Galilee, you can simply say:
