Gearldean is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Gearldean has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Gearldean. That means that a girl named Gearldean is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Gearldean.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Gearldean. Girls named Gearldean have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,548 Gearldean ranked higher than ever in 1939. By comparison, there have been 106 years in which the first name Gearldean has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Gearldean only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves really special!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Gearldean was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
The first name Gearldean is a true rarity among all women and girls currently living in the United States – only 17 Americans in total bear this name. And these 17 women are located in only three states: Alabama, Arkansas and Missouri (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 Gearldean 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 Gearldean in relation to it’s female population is Arkansas. And yet even there, only one in 326,928 women would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Gearldean.
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 nine letters, the name Gearldean is relatively long compared to other names. In fact, 5.6% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly nine letters. 92% of all first names are shorter, while not even 2.5% of all boys’ and girls’ names use ten or more 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.
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 Gearldean 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...
