Haroon -
ahead of the curve

In fact, the name Haroon did not fit the trend of the last century. Young parents in the 2000s began to change that a bit. After several years of not being given at all (or less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), Haroon seemed to be more popular than ever in 2022. Although the name never ranked higher than #1,751, 79 parents chose it that year, making it a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Haroon, you are well on your way to becoming en vogue.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Haroon was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Haroon has 6 letters 
and begins with an H

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 six letters, the name Haroon 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 2.9% 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.

Other names with
