The first name 
Getsemani

Getsemani is a first name typically given to girls, but in rare cases also used as a boys name.

Getsemani – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Getsemani in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Getsemani in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Getsemani by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Getsemani ranks at #5,386. That means there are 5,385 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 Getsemani.

Getsemani -
at home in California and Texas

If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Getsemani, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in California and Texas. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if tehre are at least five people with that name living there – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few women and girls called Getsemani living in one state or another (if your name is Getsemani and you live outside of California and Texas, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let us know, so we can refine our statistics even further). Which means – if you put this number in relation to the population of the USA – only one in 90,381 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Getsemani. So, if your name is Getsemani it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Getsemani already makes you special.

Getsemani has 9 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 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 Getsemani 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.
