Georg -
once in a blue moon

Boys named Georg have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,779 Georg ranked higher than ever in 1963. By comparison, there have been 74 years in which the first name Georg 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 2020. In general, parents name their sons Georg only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves really special!

Georg has 5 letters 
and begins with a G

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter G is not really common as a first letter for boys' names: only 2.8% of all common boys' names in the US begin with G. 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 five letters, the name Georg 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 with 2.8% of all boys' names beginning with a G, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are boys' names with G that are quite popular, the most common at present is George.
