Hamed is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Hamed in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Hamed in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Hamed by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Hamed ranks at #6,130. That means there are 6,129 more common boys 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 Hamed.
In fact, the name Hamed hardly fits the trend of first names for boys. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Hamed wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1981, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 2,252, 18 parents chose it in 1981 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Hamed, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Hamed was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, expectant parents chose the rare name Hamed a few times. Among all newborn boys, it ranked 5,559, for a total of 13 babies. The name is still more common than it was most time of the last century, when it didn't appear at all for a many years. As Hamed seems to be a bit more popular in the middle of the 20th century, it proves to remain a great rarity in 2022.
If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Hamed, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in California or New York. However, we must admit that a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s quite possible that there are still a few men and boys called Hamed living in one state or another. (If your name is Hamed and you live outside of California and New York, 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 604,877 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Hamed. So if your name is Hamed, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Hamed already makes you quite special.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter H is not particularly common as a first letter for boys' names: only 2.9% of all common boys' names in the US begin with an H. The most common first letters for boys' names are J and A, while X and U are the least common first letters of boys' names.
With five letters, the name Hamed 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.
This means that if 2.9% of all boys' names begin with an H, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Nevertheless, there are of course some names that begin with H and are extremely popular, for example Henry, currently the most common boys’ name with H.
If your name is Hamed 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 Hamed, you can simply say:
