Graelyn is a female first name.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Graelyn in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Graelyn in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Graelyn by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Graelyn ranks at #5,865. That means there are 5,864 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 Graelyn.
If you ever wanted to meet a girl or a woman named Graelyn, you have limited options – because girls with this beautiful name are currently living in North Carolina 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 Graelyn living in one state or another (if your name is Graelyn and you live outside of North Carolina 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 721,475 girls and women would turn around if you called out the name Graelyn. So, if your name is Graelyn it is very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Graelyn already makes you special.
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 Graelyn 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 Graelyn 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 Graelyn, you can simply say:
Goat
Rocket
Apple
