The first name 
Hiroki

Hiroki is a first name for boys.

Hiroki – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Hiroki 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 boy in 100,000 has been named Hiroki. That means that a boy named Hiroki is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Hiroki.

Hiroki -
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 be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Hiroki. Boys named Hiroki have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 3,038 Hiroki ranked higher than ever before in 1991. By comparison, there have been 107 years in which the first name Hiroki 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 2012. In general, parents name their sons Hiroki only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves exceptional!

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

Hiroki -
at home in

If you ever wanted to meet a boy or man named Hiroki, you have limited options – because boys with this beautiful name are currently only living in . 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 Hiroki living in one state or another. (If your name is Hiroki and you live outside of , 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 563,161 boys and men would turn around if you called out the name Hiroki. So if your name is Hiroki, it’s very likely that you won’t need a nickname in your peer group, because having the name Hiroki already makes you quite special.

Hiroki 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 Hiroki 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.
