Hina is a first name for girls.
There’s a good chance that a girl named Hina in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Hina in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Hina by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Hina ranks at #9,034. That means there are 9,033 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 Hina.
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 be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Hina. Girls named Hina have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 4,110 Hina ranked higher than ever before in 1995. By comparison, there have been 96 years in which the first name Hina 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 2013. In general, parents name their daughters Hina only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves exceptional!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Hina was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
In 2022, Hina continues to be a precious jewel: 15 newborns were named Hina that year, ranking #6,358 in the SmartGenius name statistics. If your baby's name is Hina, you must have a flair for beautiful and rare names: Congratulations, your child is sure to feel unique.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Hina in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 90 women and girls named Hina, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 90 women and girls named Hina live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Hawaii, Illinois, New Jersey and New York. In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Hina. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Hina lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Hina and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Hina relative to its female population is Hawaii. And even there, only one in 40,118 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Hina.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter H is quite rare as a first letter for girls' names: only 1.7% of all common girls' names in the US begin with H. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.
With four letters, the name Hina is shorter than most other given names. In fact, only 5.5% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly four letters. Just 1.2% of all first names are even shorter, while 93% consist of more than four 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.
Therefore: As 1.7% of all girls' names begin with an H, this initial letter is less common than the other letters on average. Interesting detail: of all the names that begin with an H, Helen is the most common.
If your name is Hina 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...
