The first name 
Glenis

Glenis is a first name for girls, occasionally also given to boys.

Glenis – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Glenis 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 Glenis. That means that a girl named Glenis is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life.

Glenis -
once in a blue moon

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 Glenis. Girls named Glenis have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,717 Glenis ranked higher than ever in 1932. By comparison, there have been 89 years in which the first name Glenis 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 Glenis 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 Glenis was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Glenis has 6 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 six letters, the name Glenis is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven 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.
